Onwards

March 5, 2012   

I got to Lima late last night and have spent the day so far just replying to emails and organising the boat for Rolex and BVI regatta. In 12 days I will be arriving in Antigua and re learning how to race yachts ;-). First thing is to get a CSA rating for the boat then deliver it with Sean and Hannah to St Thomas via BVI to meet Barry and the rest of the team.

In the meantime I was able to catch up with Will and his family in Buenos Aires. Last time I sailed with him was 2007 in Newport RI on Yeoman XXXII it was great fun to see him and meet his wife and boy even if it was only briefly at the airport. Tomorrow in New York I have the day in the city before flying to Bermuda so will be catching up with another old friend there. I love having people all over the world to stop in an see – makes the layovers a lot less boring.

Have a good week.

  1. Awesome to see you Ash. Anytime you’re passing through BA there’s a feed and a bed at your disposal!
    Magalie was thrilled to finally put a person to your name/photos and was enchanted by you. You’re life seems to be lifted from an adventure book and it was great to hear what you’ve been up to. Anytime I get bored helming this desk i’m going to dream of a life less ordinary and open your blog!
    All the best, Will (et family)
