Back to school

Studying hard to complete D5LA. Don't know the RYA equivalent, but when finished I'll have papers I can skipper commercial boats up to 50 gross tons world wide. Ship o-hoy! Have completed my exam in machine, first aid and security. Subjects remaining is law at sea, buoyancy and stability etc., seamanship and emergencies and biggest subject of all, pilotage and navigation. Crossing my fingers that I'll manage to complete all exams...

Translating

I will try to convert this blog to English as a courtesy to fellow Contessa owners abroad. Sharing is everything;)
