NEW HOME- DREAM STARTING

That' it we have made up our minds and we are going to be signing the contract soon and do the final checks up. WE HAVE A BOAT!!!!!!! There is no freaking way we will move onboard yet as we are taking it to our place in April but as far as we are concerned our new home is here. It took a lot to find the one but it is done and feelings of dread and joy are sipping through both of us right now. To be true, buying a boat is a completely different process than buying a house, adding to the fact that we have been dealing with german laws and language too. The owner is a sweet retired man that has promised to help us sail HER and learn to handle her.

Ca y'est nous nous sommes enfin decides and allons bientot signes le contrat d'achat  et finaliser les dernieres mises a jour. ON A UN BATEAU!!!!!!! Nous ne risquons pas d'emmenager a bord tout de suite mais nous devrons l'avoir en main propre des avril. Notre nouvelle maison arrivera bientot a bon port. Il nous aura fallu beaucoup de temps et de perseverance et nous sommes remplis de peur et de joie a l'heure actuelle. Sincerement, acheter un bateau n'a rien a voir avec acheter une maison, rajoutons la necessite de faire la transaction en allemagne... le proprio est un retraite charmant qui nous a promis de nous apprendre a la manier et d'aller en mer avec nous.

As a result I am in the need to start sailing courses soon and will be looking into that in UK or France. The only legal requirement is a short range radio license so I shall look into that right now. I will include a few pictures...enjoy

Par consequent, je me dois de commencer des cours de navigation et je vais chercher en angleterre et en france. La seule necessitee legale c'est une licence de radio. And a few more pictures...here it comes
