Valencia Bound… in Style!
I’m finally sitting down, albiet for a few minutes before we push off the dock on the SIG 45 catamaran in St. Tropez. This silver ship is destined for Valencia for the start of the 33rd America’s Cup. We have had some weather issues with the GRIB and weather files showing 35-50 knots on the nose with some short steep 10+ foot waves. We’ve sat on the dock long enough…what the hell…we’re going for it anyway and will stay close to shore. Here are a few pics of the boat and surroundings. I’m actually a bit excited to get out on the water after quite a winter of total ice. I’m donning the drysuit now and we did our final safety check. Time to rock it through the night!
