Ariel - from ariel

Dear All, info about Ariel sailing trip and medical research.  Forgetting the gennaker explosion we are fast enough with other sails and happy to follow other boats with cloured sails. We will never give up! Some info about the research. We collected samples  for hormonal changes in Melatonine, cortisol, insuline and leptine after the for ocean week and from today to the arrival we will monitor the Hearth Variability Test and the Microbiota changes before the arrival. On board we have Cecilia, my wife, first mate as well as our chef. I send you some pictures of life on board the amazing life on board of an Italian Hallberg Rassy. ;) IMG_6422IMG_6981IMG_6943IMG_6976A3AE330A-EF2A-4095-A6FB-DCDDAD94D93C. read more...

Lat night our blue gennaker exploded thanks partly to the little wind and the killer wave, but above all to age and thousands of miles. Thanks Genny for the multiple gallops around the world's oceans. Now it's the time of Bianca the new flying genoa, definitely not so perfect for downwind sailing; we will help you with a new sail pattern: the "foursail"! Happy week to all cruisers!Look at the pictures. read more...
