Depois de 18 meses planejando juntos, faltando 3 semanas ela avisou determinada que não vai mais. Já tínhamos tirado os passaportes, feitos exames médicos, comprados óculos de sol e de grau, comprados as roupas para proteger do calor e do frio. Mesmo assim, ela desistiu. Mas vida que segue.

Schooner Grounds in Span Water! The Utopia went aground just west of Ogdensburg International Bridge about 10 p.m. Monday while on the last leg of her trip around the world. The Auxiliary Schooner, sailing under the command of Captain Fred J. Peterson, left Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin on November 17th, 1956 for a trip around the world. The 65-foot ship is on her way home with seven people aboard. According to Robert Peterson, the son of the captain, the ship went aground just west of the New Bridge. Captain John Atherton, skipper of the Coast Guard Cutter White Lupine, went to the Schooner’s aid in the morning. The small powerboat off the Lupine, carried the anchor from the Utopia and the small ship came off under her own power. On the ship besides the captain were his son and daughter-in-law, who just went aboard 10 days ago. Mr. Peterson Jr. has been operating his father's ship building yard at Sturgeon Bay. He flew to Montreal to meet his father on his homecoming voyage. Others on the ship include Damayan Dunuwille from Ceylon, Wong Chin Chong, a 23-year-old from Malaya, who speaks seven different languages, Stephen Busaz, a Hungarian who went aboard at Sydney Nova Scotia, and Joseph Swafford, 25, from Silver Springs, Maryland, who was touring Europe on his own and joined the group at Barcelona, Spain. Before the visitors could come aboard at Ogdensburg, they had to be examined by a local doctor. The Utopia was built in 1946 at Captain Peterson's shipyard. In 1947, he spent 11 months cruising the Mediterranean. The world cruisers crossed the Atlantic on the way home in 13 days and six hours. According to Mr. Peterson, the ship will be laid up at Sturgeon Bay for the winter and repaired. The ship has a steel bottom but it is wood from the water level up. Household appliances of all sorts can be used on the ship. The freezer will hold a ton of frozen meat. The ship is equipped with radar and had two auxiliary engines for power. Under power, the ship will travel about eight knots. Under sail, with a good wind, it will sail along at an 11-knot clip. About the Utopia: The historic Great Lakes schooner Utopia, built in 1946, offers a fascinating glimpse into maritime history. Originally from Sturgeon Bay, you can now find Utopia in Manitowoc, Wisconsin! Dockside visitors can explore this beautifully crafted vessel, which was designed by Fred J. Peterson of Peterson Builders, Inc. in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin and built in 1946. Utopia’s unique features include a steel double bottom for strength, wooden hull sides for warmth, and twin Detroit diesel engines. Visitors can marvel at her elegant lines, learn about her global circumnavigation, and appreciate the craftsmanship that has kept her sailing for decades. Utopia currently resides under the stewardship of the her new owners based in Manitowoc Wisconsin, where it continues to inspire curiosity and passion for the Great Lakes among learners of all ages.

Giorno 160 - andiamo a Guadalupa Dalle Saints oggi attraversiamo sulla Guadalupa, un’isola a forma di farfalla. Facciamo rotta su un’isolotto appena sotto la marina che sembra la classica isola del tesoro. Molliamo gli ormeggi dopo una mattina piena di lavoro e vediamo il cielo chiudersi davanti a noi. Un temporale non è nulla di che, se vissuto con le dovute precauzioni. Questo ci fa prendere due mani di terzaroli alla randa e tenere il Genoa ridotto. Julia corre, facciamo picchi di 9,5 nodi verso i nuvoloni. Erano normalissime nuvole bianche che hanno caricato acqua e si sono annerite. Sempre di più. Siamo pronti, cerate fuori. Più gli andiamo incontro più vediamo che non ha intenzione di togliersi dalla terra. Vuole stare lì. E così ci grazia da una doccia abbondante, lasciandoci asciutti e contenti. (Potrebbe essere il nuovo finale dei racconti di mare: “e vissero così asciutti e contenti”🤣) Ma torniamo a noi: corsa, galoppata verso Guadalupa conclusa con l’ingaggio di un duello all’ultimo miglio con un catamarano Genoa e motore. Come ci siamo ridotti direte voi…. Vero! Questo è quello che passava il convento e oggi eravamo affamati di adrenalina. Arriviamo all’isola del tesoro e scopriamo che mille altre barche volevano trovarlo, al punto da rendere la baia antistante piena di barche all’ancora. Ci aggiungiamo al gruppo e spegniamo il motore. E così anche la giornata di oggi si è conclusa, con l’equipaggio sorridente. Asciutto e contento! A domani! Andrea
