Tribute




One of the reason i love sea and sailing is that it merge peoples since antiquity. As well as the death will gather us one day. The same reason, maybe, that join me with a person like Hans Horrevoets. A sailor. I did not know him personally but i feel near ones who knew him. And so i’m here, tonight, thinking about his fellows sailing across the ocean with his body below the deck and his family (wife and son) smashed by the sorrow. I’m imagining their thoughts, the crew and the family, rethinking their life, feeling human beiings strong enough because the sea is stronger than everiting else but sweet, great, endless, if you sail around the world. Just like the love we gave our wifes and sons every times we were back and give when we will not.


I hope I succeded in writing about my feelings in a good english like good feeling gave me men like Hans Horrevoets
