After a week of sunshine and hard work we have now got into the rain period. Tons of work here in the shipyard, but at the same time very interesting how it all works.
I live in a rather big house with the captain about 20 minutes south of Ancona in a little town called Numana. It's a nice little town with a marina, tons of resturants, big night clubs, and our house have a view down over it all.
I'll be stuck here for another 2 months before we are supposed to head over to the islands of Croatia and Greece. After that it will pobably continue to Sardinia, Corsica, and finally Monaco with shorter trips to Saint Tropez during the summer. Nothing is set yet and I guess it's all up to the owner to decide what weekend to spend a couple of millions.
The yacht is very nice and the owner is thinking about building a new 68 meter (225 foot) beginning next year.
The Italians are the same as always. Never work more than they have to, even with a strict timeline, vino and sambuca for lunch, but also fun as hell.
No pics in this mail since I just haven't had the time to get around to it. I'm going to try to attach a file of the yacht, but I don't know if it will work or not. If not go to this site:

Have a good one you all and talk to you soon again.

What a job
Sounds like fun bastard...you deserve it though. Sounds very interesting and fun at the same time.
I hope all is well!! It is okay here in CA - rainy at the moment; hope it warms up soon, you know how we are anything below 65 F and it sucks!! hehehe
Take care,
Jules
