Jan Pieter seems to have called my parents in Cambridge hoping to reach me. I was working a Paris to Vancouver flight.
The message was that both Mokum and his crew had weathered the storm very well and he was very pleased and proud of both.
I am posting this from Vancouver. I fly out tonight to London and our pilots are going to attempt to call them via their sat phone. I am not too optimistic because Mokum doesn't have the phone on all the time. I have texted them a time to receive.
It would be exciting to make an air to sea connection!
When the boat left St John"s Martin had just been out to make the last minute purchase of a "loaf tin". There were a few comments from the crew.....JP rolled his eyes and warned the others to keep an eye on Martin if he started putting things in the oven. Hopefully now they can all "eat their words".
Let's all raise a sandwich!??!!( don't anyone dare say sub)
To Mokum!

Nice weather and fresh baked bread in the middel of the ocean, what a way to go! I hope the weather stays like that for the rest of the trip and that they bring the summer with them to the north of the european continent.We are exitied to greet them here in Holland. We are keeping a close watch over there progress.
Congratulations Jan-Piet and all the crew, you must have all put in some sleepless nights through that storm. But just think when you are telling the tale to your Grand-children. Those waves will grow a little bit more each year. We at home are so proud of you all, (I keep stopping people at the golf club and in the Elevator) to ask them if they are following the Blog. and I give them the address, some of them don't even have computers!!! Hope the rest of your sailing is smoother.
Best regards to you all.
Jack & Marion Hudson.
We love ya Jan-Piet.
You will all be pleased to know that I have reported Lesley to the bad pun police.
In the meantime, bravo Mokum. Keep up the good work and we will all keep up our wishes for the best possible weather.
You are amazing!!
Joanne and Warren
