Plans for the first trip of 2015

With Mo’s choral concert featuring Vaughan Williams’ Sea Symphony, sung on Saturday May 9th, we feel suitably tuned into going sailing as we pack our carry on bags for a departure on Tuesday 12th May. Looking ahead at the Croatian weather forecasts we have a few days of strong southerlies to encounter which may make life difficult as we head off to Split, 100 miles south of our base in Sukosan.

We have planned a Boat Launching Party which alluded us last year when we took over our new Deja Vu, on May 26th somewhere around Split. We have Tom and Faye joining us for 3 days and then Sue and Dick for a week. May 26th is the overlap day and therefore the fitting choice for the official champagne launch. Thereafter it will be a run (could we be so lucky?) back to Sukosan as we have a flight to catch on June 6th so we are back in the UK with enough time to weed the garden before the wedding day on June 27th.
