The last opportunity to qualify for the Final of the SAILING Champions League 2019 is coming up soon - the third and last qualifier which takes place in St. Petersburg, Russia, over four frenetic days from 4 to 7 July. Racing on the Neva River, amid the spectacular scenery of St. Petersburg, is a humbling experience. It’s also a challenge, with shifting winds and strong currents. There are 20 clubs from 12 nations (Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland) fighting for six places that are available for a ticket to the Final in St. Moritz in August.
And it was another one of those bad news days. After pulling up the deck on the outside we realised that the wood rot got into the samson post right on deck level. After poking a knife into the samson post to determine how far along the wood rot has gone (hoping we could safe the samson post) we quickly realised that it's rotten almost halfway through and it was a hard decision, I do have to admit it took a bit of convincing, I really wanted to save the old post, I really didn't want another project, it's all getting a bit overwhelming lately, like what the hell was I thinking, buying a timber boat... But yeah the boat builder and a few other friends did talk some sense into me, it is probably not the safest idea to moor your boat on a half rotten post. So here we go, winching the old post out to use it as a template to make a new one :) IG: @ yvonnemarianna.travels Patreon: SailingStormy
At Ekommunity things slow down. You can meditate in our small rice field, practice yoga near the river, nourish your creativity in our chill zones and your body with our organic homegrown food. If you need deeper healing of your inner self we can arrange a meeting with the local gurus to learn more about your health and spiritual path. Our off the beaten path estate stemmed from a wish for a simpler and healthier lifestyle. Bali and it’s strong spiritual culture felt just right to begin this quest. We decided to look beyond the typical homestays and small hotels found nearby. In the middle of our coffee and clove plantation we’ve built a dreamy bamboo dorm where we wish you’ll be able to meet like minded travellers. We’ve also installed tents elevated on wood decks inspired by the glamping trend. You’ll go to bed to the sound of the river and wake up with a view!
