Exactly a week ago I took Katja taxi to Porto airport. A bad tooth had signed up over night with nasty pain with her and forced her to do so, the planned visit to Germany two weeks ahead to lay. Since I would again “Widower wider Willen” call. If this continues, then I'll me a next time “Widower-Crown” tinker and every day this March through the port. Then people will say “Let's look at the poor guy, the wife of Board which runs in any second port”. As I heard, bekommt man Mitleid ja geschenkt 🙂 Naja, What's it all about?! Anyway everything is only half as much fun, If my Katja is not there. Meistens jedenfalls 🙂

However, the advantage is, that you can focus fully and entirely, New to discover and maintain dating. As for example the relationship with the Chandlery “Douro River Marina” here in the port. Things were on the list of work to be done on the ship as: Motor Service, Trim threads renew on the sailing, Customize allow suspension for autopilot, Deck floodlight renew and much more. With these things I have in all these media ignorant “Lady” behind the desk in the retail space confronts. Chewing gum chewing, with long fingernails and a slight touch of arrogance and profound ignorance, she said to me, that I would receive an email with the requested work offers in the next few days.

Last year I had here left a lot of money and was really pleased with the service of your colleagues. But despite repeated demand on different days, I've got until today, no info. So I took care of me finally everything myself.

With great joy, and to compensate for my frustration I would tinker like to a second Crown and her on her oh so beautiful main set. If I only knew, What “Sales brake” means in Portuguese, then I'd write it in neon on the edge of the Crown. This yacht shop is thus in my personal ranking 47 Rank fell from 47 visited shops. Das musste mal gesagt werden 🙂

On Saturday I borrowed bike in the shop next door, to move my weary bones and to make a trip to Porto. I had been wondering on the way, Why were the streets of so full of people, could make me but not figure it out. By chance, the boss of the bike kept me then located in Porto- and scooter rental company on the road to. He told me, that on the Douro River a powerboat race held tomorrow would and pressed me a programme in the hand. “Grande Premio Portugal – F1 Motonautica” Cool, Formula 1 on the water! You need to know, that the six-meter-long and 390 KG heavy boats from carbon and Kevlar in just four seconds of 0 on 160 Km/h speed and good 240 Km/h are fast. This is a very serious announcement and promises Motorsport in the border area, exactly to my taste.

On Sunday, the big race in the premier class should be to 17:15 Start. Against 13:30 I had already saddled the bike and was on the road in the direction of Porto. The event I wanted to miss me and that I wanted to secure a place in the front row. So I actually Braised the next two and a half hours in the Sun and chained me formally with my bike on a fence set, from which you all could see. It was trained diligently and in the opening act, the Renner of formula delivered 4 Series have some fierce duels with flips and somersaults in the air. Also a very talented stunt pilot has demonstrated to us, what you all can do with a plane. One must imagine only once, has found the fun in the middle of the city above the roofs of Porto. Irre gut 🙂

If so a boat, top speed over the water boarded, are virtually only parts of the rails and screw in the water. The rest of the boat is located in the air. It is problematic, When crossing the lines of boats and the rear boat will be transported from the shaft of the front man in the air. Is the angle too steep, the boat like a rocket climbs and beats somersaults in the air, until it hits again on the surface. At the speeds the water is hard as concrete! I know, what it's like, with a race car head-on into a guardrail to embark on. That hurts a lot and produces a lot of breakage. Who wants to be fast, just what must risk and may not be afraid. What the guys here have shown, was exciting motor sport at its very best at the highest level! Class!

Here is the video from the start! Please times loud turn up the speakers and enjoy the sound:-)

Deeply satisfied and excessively impressed viewers the pilots in the lap of honour gave a vigorous round of applause. It was already a very cool number much thrill and no soft washed sport event. That have accordingly rewarded the people and also looking forward. I would turn like even a few rounds with as a Bumblebee…… 🙂 Mal sehen, What's coming, If the sailing should be once too slow. Als alter Sack werde ich dort aber ganz sicher keine Krone mehr gewinnen 🙂
