Hanseboot, NDR and “Annabelle”


Dear Readers,

It's been a while, I wrote the last entry. What is happening now?

Now, the book is on the market since early September and since then every week I get some letters. It is really nice, always felt so much sun in the back, To get praise from people, I do not know, But I have learned through the book, how else do it just my friends…

Two weeks ago I was at the Book Fair in Frankurt. A stunning picture, the many millions of books there, especially in the international hall. And among the many, Many books were also my. Interesting, a little to stand aside and watch the people, as they scroll through it and depend mostly on the photo pages remain. Of course there were already some criticism, about a woman with Amazon, which was quite appalled, that George, Irene and I are the iguanas in the Bahamas with “rotting bread” have fed – “This”, she wrote in a review in Amazon, “not fathered by maturity”. Each course was granted his own image and I think it is just those things, the book sales on the Internet to make exciting.

Another outstanding and at the same time the review appeared in the other hand, DO (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, written by explorers, Wilfried Erdmann(!). I could hardly believe it for joy, immediately sat down in the car, drove to the station kiosk, and was still fighting in the parking lot in the car with the giant newspaper, to read the article. Here he can be found.
Immediately after the publication of the newspaper's sales jumped enormously, so “Solo across the Atlantic” even briefly ranked 712 the Amazon charts was. A dream! 🙂

The last few weeks, I've filed it now, a good trade-off studies, To create and book Segelei, what I now, In the third semester and slowly getting better manage. The day after tomorrow in Hamburg starts the Hanseboot, I on the nine days in hall B2, booth presentations on the yacht “With a small boat on a long journey” will hold. Further, I am every day (up on Saturday 27.) short for an interview on the NDR stage and the last Sunday of the fair speaker at Bobby Schenk's Blue Water Seminar.

In between, I'm on the Sunday evening 28. October. at 18.45 Clock on N3 in the program THE! Sitting as a guest on the red sofa. Then I'm very excited. Actually, I should already have been in yesterday on the show, has now been turned over, however,. Therefore, at this point an apology to all, die sich statt meinen Reiseerzählungen nun gestern Altenpflegebeiträge und Hunde mit Gallensteinen angesehen haben 😉

Mein Waarschip 570 “Annabelle” since day before yesterday now out of the water. When lifted the boat onto the trailer was and all the shells, who have settled in the summer at the underwater ship, hovered over us, Crane said the master to me “www.allein-on-see.de… In, This year we are probably not too often “at sea” been, was?”
Annabelle is now coming back to Wolfsburg in the winter camp – and is for sale.
