Logbook
It has always been Juergen's dream to cross the Atlantic by boat. Though I love sailing and certainly have gotten quite fond of our HR 46 and can handle sailing her quite well, I never really felt like a dare devil and thought of trips longer than from Montauk, Long Island, to Bermuda, to be the greatest distance I would ever want to go. Over the years, Juergen worked on me and my psyche and so, on June 1, 2005, we finally left Milford to cross the Atlantic. There were great days and miserable ones, largely weather related, in just a few instances caused by battery or other technical problems. You have read all of this, and I don't want to bore you.
Instead, I just want to lead you into reading on, if you have not already gotten bored with our earlier descriptions (see 2005 and 2006), about our travels in 2007 and 2008. We have no plans to go beyond May/June 2008 at this point, but then, who knows whether the bug catches us after all. Happy reading!
