After trips in February and April,  little by little we’re getting there.  Heartbeat Iv has been in her berth at Catamaran Marina  since March (when Jason and Raffan brought her round from her stay at North Sound Marina - many thanks to Raquel,  Tom and the team there).  Assorted work is going on with sails and rig revamped, antifouled,  and some cosmetic work underway. Haven’t yet had a chance to think too much about the Antigua-Bermuda Race but team start arriving in Antigua on Sunday May 7th.  Team currently Judy P-J, Jason P-J,  Nic Paterson,  John Hounsell, Tristan Dorrien-Smith,  Robin Baggaley and Fred Brown. If you want to join us, let us know.   Barring any hitches (always possible when trying to prepare remotely) we start the Antigua-Bermuda Race on May 12th!!

Here’s some images of Heartbeat IV leaving North Sound and in  her current home.
