At 07.45 we crossed over the airport runway using the sea way in order to reach Alcaidesa Marina on the Spanish side of the border for oil change and general engine check before heading out to sea again. While the Spanish technician was busy I had a long chat with Haakan, a Swedish guy from Stockholm.
Haakan bought his boat in the water in Nantes, France. Buying a boat in the water means a big chance of getting unexpected surprises - like in Haakan's case. He is now working hard to fix all 530 problems on his 33 ft Taylor wharf (UK) built in 1973 - one of only 13 built. Haakan fell in love with her beautiful curves... His partner is working as an accountant in Gibraltar but once she has completed her contract they will sail to Portugal for next summer. Latet they plan to cross over the Atlantic to Mexico.
I am glad that you seem to be enjoying your philosophical moment, having interesting chat with "livsnjutare".
