Some photos from June
























Mateusz Goes Winter Sailing

Today is my big day, Daddy is going to show me how to sail. I get shown the bow by Dad, and all the ropes by Mum. I sit in the cockpit and watch Dad stear his yacht. Then I have a go at winching and do a great job of setting the sails. I want to be a grinder for Team NZ when I grow up. After a hard days sail, I do the international sign for a cold beer please.....and mummy gives mashed vegetables for dinner!!

I am going to run away and crew for Kevin Murphy on Pawnbroker, then I can have a beer after a hard days sail.

Weekend at the yacht 21-22 April 2007

Master Mateusz navigates the good ship Hidaway into little known secret cove in the Noisey Isles.

Dad, just give me the tiller and I will get this tub sailing properly, you just don't have the knack for making this boat go fast.


Captain Scott takes this cracker photo (what do you think Dave?)
Captain Scott and his first mate, young Master Mateusz, battle high seas and a mutinous crew (Mum wants him to go for an afternoon sleep). Their adventures take them through perilous waters filled with pirates, rum traders, gun runners and cooing grannies.

First try at the Jolly Jumper


Mateusz with babcia before going home, gosh he looks like a girl here, it must be the outfit!


Mateusz is being bathed on our yacht however it seems that the sink is getting smaller and smaller each time we bath him. Need to think about different means for his bath....
