Hobart Memories : March - November , 2003... Hobart Memories

How wonderful it was to have returned to Hobart, Tasmania. We had been looking forward to seeing our friends, indulging our passions for Hobart's music and arts scene, fine markets and restaurants, and the local cruising grounds.

Our first visitors aboard were our dear friends Peter, Arlene and son Andrew. We took them for a day sail on the River Derwent. Other friends came aboard for the occasional sunny Sunday sail, including Steph and Helen and their son Jack, Margaret and Gordon, Heinz and Helen, Pat and Roger, Les and Joanne and many others. One day we counted 17 people scattered about ADAGIO's decks and saloon.

Bruny Island with HAWK : September, 2003. At long last, Beth and Evans on HAWK arrived in Tasmania following a 70,000nm passage across the Southern Ocean from Capetown to Freemantle. We helped them secure s/v HAWK right behind ADAGIO! 

We had heaps of stories to trade, then took them on their first catamaran cruise aboard ADAGIO. Shortly before ADAGIO sailed for New Zealand there was time for a cruise-in-company down to visit the Swans at Bruny Island. Along the way Beth took the best off-the-boat pics we have of ADAGIO [for an article in SAIL Magazine].
