Like ships that pass in the day time..

Tenacious

Last Time I crossed the atlantic I was sailing on board the beautiful Tenacious, bracing thae yards, heaving away on my marks and climbing in the rigging. It was a very happy memory!

This morning as fate would have it. I was on the bridge making preparations for our departure when I heard a familiar voice on the VHF radio. " Bermuda radio, this is Tenacious", " Good Morning Tenacious this is Bermuda radio, what is your ETA in Bermuda?"

Tenacious sailed into Bermuda harbour only one hour after we left.! We didn't see them because they approached from the other side of the island.

The lovely people that I know on board, that I have not seen since a wedding I went to in August, passed like ships in the night, or rather in the middle of the morning.

I wonder, as we sail eastwards when I will see them again.
