Morays Garden,
Finally I’ve got my 20 dives minimum to start my Dive master in Phi Phi.I’ve started with a beautiful morning getting on the speed boat with my instructor and a group of Italians which were afraid to not fit inside the boat but what you guys understand about a boat??????????Well, at least for me a boat and specially a speed boat with 400 HP will not be so big as a vessel and so let’s get to adventures in the open sea to Hin Daeng and Hin Muang.These to spots are two pinnacles where divers go swirling and enjoying all fish and coral formations attached to the rock.On my 2nd dive (Hin Muang) we were over am huge garden of Giant Morays, there were everywhere making the dive amazing, only the whale shark and manta ray wasn’t seen but one day I will do it.Well back to Phi Phi we did the memorial 20m above the sea level and visibility was like 2 or 2 meters and was nice to see and think at the same time about the tragedy from the 26th of December 2004, the Tsunami.Back to land, time to wash up the equipment and be on the small shop selling and resting from this exhausting day turning lobster.To finish the day, a special green Thai curry makes you feeling nice and provided for the next day.

Caravel, permament travelling


Well folks,

I think is time to start writing some of my thoughts and keep in touch with my great adventure and new experiences.
The name Caravel is due to all adventures and wish to see the world and as a result sailed with the precision necessary for inshore surveying in unknown waters.
Because of its smaller size the caravel (myself) is able to explore up river in shallow coastal waters. With the lateen sails affixed it is able to go speedily over shallow water and take deep wind, while with the square Atlantic-type sails attached, the caravel was very fast. Its economy, speed, agility, and power made the caravel esteemed as the best sailing vessel of its time.
