Ok people. By now I've done another season in the BVI's and coming back from there in June, I moved to Greece again.
The stay in BVI's was great, working there as an RYA Instructor. It's true what they say, You learn the most when you teach.
In februari two guys working on Necker Island decided to organize a kiteboard event. The BVI Kitejam 2010.

Sunsail was a part sponsor and provided ten 384 catamarans with skipper. Me being one of them.
A great event, only most days not enough wind for kitesurfing. Every night a party with unlimited food and enough music fun and drinks.
The opening party was on the private Necker Island where I happen to meet the owner, sir Richard Branson.
Oh well, what's in a name.
Anyway, great week.
One of the events here is the Pokerrun. One takes a big fast 'cigarette' boat (remember Miami Vice) and follows a route to different islands, or should i say pubs. Pick up a Pokercard and in the end the best hand wins.
On average 5 of them sink or crash during this.
And there is ofcourse a great party afterwards.
Great six months.
Back to Greece in july for more fun... I mean work. Met some of the guys from last year and loads of new cool people.
Did flotilla and bareboat and even two great deliverys from Epidavros back to Paleros, which took me through the Corinth Canal.

Anyway, Back home I decided, after long debate, to take the job in the BVI's for 2011, and here I am!
Check my facebook for photo's.
I'll tell you more about my current life soon as it looks like I am up to date now with all my stories.
