Dalla Gomera sono andata all'isola di Hierro con la mia barca a vela Maneki. Sono circa 40 miglia nautiche con vento da Nord. L'isola di Hierro (ferro in spagnolo) e' quella piu' piccola dell'arcipelago spagnolo delle Canarie e anche quella piu' a sud. Era l'ultimo lembo di terra 'conosciuto' dalla nostra civilta' prima della grande distesa di acqua dell'dell'oceano Atlantico e per questo i cartografici avevano deciso di iniziare a contare la longitudine della Terra proprio da qui. Hierro convenzionalmente era il 'meridiano zero'. Le antiche mappe partono infatti dal 'meridiano di Hierro'. Sull'isola c'e' una sola marina, La Estaca e un porticciolo di pescatori (La Restinga). Essendo molto vulcanica, non ha spiagge, quindi e' difficile ancorare. Pero' ho trovato un posto, nel Mar de la Calma, costa meridionale. Come di deduce dal nome l'ancoraggio e' calmissimo. Unico inconveniente: niente campo internet e almeno 4 ore di sentiero impervio prima di raggiungere il primo villaggio...fuori dal mondo appunto.

Since undertaking the major reframing operation whilst on the slipway, we have now relaunched Hawila and are very happy to be afloat once again! The planks have been slowly taking up and the seams are now tight. We have been busy fairing the inside of the frames to accept the ceiling planks and bilge stringers, which will help to produce the rigidity of the ship fore and aft. Fairing is to shape the frames by planing and sanding to produce a fair and even curve and allows us to fasten the ceiling plank tightly to the surface of the frames. Having completed the fairing in the bow, our team wasted no time in hanging the first ceiling plank. The oak plank is steamed for two hours to make it sufficiently pliable so that it can be bent into shape and fastened to the frames. Once fixed, it adds rigidity to the fore and aft strength of the ship.

We are currently working on the refit of our sailing vessel Hawila. This structural overhaul will make her fit for the first Transatlantic crossing. Hawila will be sailing 60 tons of organic products as well as trainees across the Atlantic, in an emission-free way, showing that respectful, ethical, and clean transport is possible. This work is possible thanks to people like you investing in shares! Learn more: https://www.hawila.org/cooperative/#share
