Chile –
Puerto Williams.
The Beagel
Canal forms the border between Argentina and Chile. Two countries
that do not succeed in creating an especially good neighborhood. Formalities and paperwork is
unbelievable.
Villvind
has now moved across the Beagel Canal ,
25 nm eastwards to Puerto Williams on the Chilean side of the Canal. After visiting - and have filled in documents at the Yacht Club,
Capetaneria de Puerto, Imigration, Costums and Agriculture before going back to the Capetaneria to show them that
everything is done and stamps and signatures are OK ,- the clearance procedure is completed.
Our plan
now is to return westwards into the clacier area before returning to Puerto
Williams and clear out for Cape Town in South Africa around the 20.January.
We stay now
at Micalvi Yacht Club. The marina/ pier is created from an old armada ship (Micalvi) that is run
aground (on purpose ) and forms a
very sheltered and good harbour. The club is run by the Armada and the atmosphere in this cruising hub is
very interesting. The first person we met and who took our lines was Skip Novak in his
Pelagic.
Dag and Svein is now well installed on board and they both are working properly !
Stay uned.
Dag, Svein and Terje in Villvind !

Hei Terje. Takk for oppdatering på e mail. Går ut fra at naturopplevelsene er
så bra at selv myndigheters byråkrati ikke ødelegger. Du er jo vant med den slags
fra Galapagos og ikke minst Markesas, husker jeg rett. Du er alltid forberedt
på den slags så vel som på den praktiske seiling. Gode forberedelser gir minimale
muligheter for uhell mener jeg min skipper Terje en gang inprentet meg, og det har du ført bevis for stemmer.
Vi har det slett ikke galt på Jeløy heller. Skiturer i strandkanten i lav sol, god gli, lodne trær. Ubeskrivelig vakkert. Traff en blid, som alltid, Berit i Mossemarka søndag. Stadig like sprek!
Martha og jeg ønsker deg en hyggelig og uproblematisk overfart til Afrika!
