SuAn-Baby is developing nicely
The proud father, Papa Karl, presents the fast developing SuAn-Baby. Even though some details are still missing, the typically lines of the hull of the mother SuAn can be easily recognized.
The SuAn-Baby will be fully functional. For this reason rudder, remote control receiver, sheet winch and motor are already integrated in to the hull.
The crew of the mother SuAn hardly can wait to see the little SuAn to sail on her own.

SuAn is getting a baby
It is hardly believable, but SuAn is getting a baby. The usual question about “Who is the father?” is quickly answered: It is Lutz’s papa Karl. With great engineering skills and a professional approach did he clone SuAn’s genes in the scale 1:25. Meanwhile the shape of little SuAn with its typical twin kiel is clearly recognizable.
Mother -SuAn’s crew is very exited about the growing family.

Working in China
Since today we are living and working in China. We made a fast decision again. We are taking a break from our sailing adventure and return in the world of business. For a period of two years we swap the sea charts against flow charts, VHF radio against the mobile phone and our SuAn against an apartment in Foshan, China. We will continue our journey in April 2014.

Improved User Interface
We have changed the interface for the Logbook based on some good proposals from our readers:
- The link on our front page points now directly to the latest entry in the logbook.
- So far it was quite inconvenient to move from one leg to the next or the previous. This we have improved. The control of the logbook contains at the first and the last page of every trip a new key that points directly to the previous / next leg. Now you can click through the entire logbook in both directions without bothering about the legs.

New banner - background info
Our reader probably noticed the new banner in the top of the pages.
The banner is a panorama image of 270 degree and consists of 22 single frames. The frames are combined on a computer using the program "Stitch".
The single pictures are taken from the tip of the highest peak of the island Maupiti and show the surrounding lagoon. In the middle of the panorama you can see the pass in to the lagoon. On the left of the peeks in the foreground you can see Gabi waving with her arms.
