Trip was great, only minor drawback was that boats another turbo did not work in one day, but in that day, sea was so rough so it did only good for our kidneys. These are not ment to be "arty" pics, just snapped nice memories, so don't mind about compositions and stuff. .n

Our boat, Aquator 26. What a sweet boat. It looks bit smaller than it actually is. .n

...and from another angle. 6 people could sleep there, boat includes shower, toilet, fridge and stuff like that. It surely looks too small, must be that dynamic shape. .n

This is from sea! Second time in my life when it has been this calm. Feeling was incredible, almost like flying. .n

...and another one, from sea. Not so calm. We where few times airborne, boat actually jumped into air. And you can imagine how hard water feels when falling down to bottom of breaker. Well, intresting experience, but dont want to be there ever again. .n

These crazy people came from FRANCE???!!!11 It will take (few?) month(s) or something like that to travel the whole trip with boat as small as that. Huh. .n

And we as saving angel. We had to drag their small boat and lost about hour and a half. Old man gave us 10e (~10$) as reward. What he did not know, was that boat costs 80e (~80$) per hour. And there where three expensive guys spending their work time and earning their payment too. I did not tell them, our firm surely got more money than those pensioners. .n
