Comments

Last evening we returned to anchor in the river after successfully completing our sea trials following our repairs in port. We returned to the wharf this morning and embarked our final passenger. With a full complement on board, the last line was thrown at 09:56 and it didn't take long for the Happy Diamond to reach her cruising speed. We make the most of the fading phone reception to say our farewells to family and friends as we settle into the voyage.


REGARDS: Matt & Anthony
