One evening in the bar of Tanga Yachtclub I spot a new group of 8 who just have arrived on a small boat. It looks like they had a tough time sailing upwind to Tanga. We start talking. They are German and Swiss and came from Dar Es Salaam and will go back tomorrow to celebrate newyear in Ras Nungwe in the North of Zanzibar. But they are clearly not happy to be all together on the little boat.
Well,I need a break, it was long time since the last sail. So I propose we go with 2 ships. They immediately start smiling say yes and buy me a beer. Every body happy and the next day we go at 06.00, a lovely downwind passage to Ras Nungwe.
