August 21, 2009, Eva & Rachel Ring, Belgium









They came all the way from Belgium to enjoy our sun and fun in Miami. Madelin , the chief Concierge at the Betsy hotel suggested that they come aboard the RA for an Afternoon sail on our Great Biscayne Bay. I also invited Gianfranco to join us. We had some wine and vegetarian fair aboard. They were really very appreciative of the beauty of the bay and the tranquility of Sailing. It was gentle breeze, about 10 Knots. It was the first time for them on a sailing boat. Each lady took a turn on the helm, Actually Rachel sailed her in the Chanel with great skill. Here is what they wrote in the log:
"Mr Asaad, What a wonderful time we spent with you. Your kindness, hospitality, and generosity is something we will always remember. Sailing and human kindness is offering a lot more than we ever could expect. Thanks for this great time and the teaching !, see you soon, thanks again Captain, Rachel & Eve Ring" .
