Oh, didn't know Michel was married to your wife's sister :heh:

Anyway, nice to see you up and running again. I was also wondering about the Helena, then I found out, after being away for long periods at sea, that the Douane itself wasn't finished yet! Good to see you make some progress, the drive will come for sure :thumbs_up_1:

slowly but surely does it!

I myself have been delayed in my projects thru hot weather, business and small child...

so I KNOW how frustrating it must be for you also when you have been pre-occupied with health and motivation...

Good to see you back in in the saddle!
