Thelxiope or how charming something can be….

Some days ago, Jasp came to me, after I finished up the public beach at Hay Harbor, to chat and chill a bit.

While we were doing this, he showed me his Pacha, and I didn’t like it much, but he didn’t either. So on short notice, I grabbed my paintbucket and swang the brush, to make his sweet yacht the way he would like it.

With the paintbucket I took also some fabric and a needle, to get him some new fabrics onto his furniture too.

It was too late to have a run with her, but right on the next day, we showed her off, and Dakota, my sister came right along, with her Shileds Class “Xsenias Pearl”.

He made me name it, and i took another Sirens-Name Thelxiope. It means charming voice, he loved it.

It’s been a long road…

… To get from there to here.
It’s been a long time,
but my time is finally here. 

And I can feel a change
in the wind right now.
Nothing’s in my way.
And they’re not gonna
hold me down no more.
No they’re not gonna hold me down. 

‘Cause I’ve got faith of the heart.
I’m going where my heart
will take me.
I’ve got faith to believe.
I can do anything.
I’ve got strength of the soul.
And no one’s going to bend
or break me.
I can reach any star.
I’ve got faith,
I’ve got faith,
Faith of the heart.

I love this lyrics, another reason why my IF is named Faith. But today I wasn’t out with the faith, Jasp took me along with his Thelxinoe - this is ancient greek and means “charming the minds”.

We trained our teamwork today, well at least we wanted, just to realize, that we dont have to, cuz we seem to know each other well enough, to know on the body language what to expect and do next. It was an awesome feelingand the tacking was great too.

Cuz of the roling restarts we had to wait several times, untill we could move on.

But finally we were able to rush home, as fast as the wind could carry us. The “Theli” how I call Jasps boat fondly, was a huge pleasure today.

…and Jasp was too. XD

The first real Trip …

Jasp and I had today the first real Trip with our IFs. After I gifted him a full texture set, sepcially made just for him, we went out to try her and play with the waves.

Very awesome we tried the Cinematic Cam too - it is amazing … mind blowing, I so hafte to make some videos now. Some of the pics are made with this special cam.

What you can’t read at the moment …

… Jasps IF got her name by me. She is called Thelixoe - this means “charming the mind” and as the IF is really charming our minds, it was just perfect, and is the name of a Siren.

We both have very differnt taste in colors, but I loved to do this one for him. I need to make some shots, to show you all of the details!

If you have Faith …

I have Faith, in more than one way. Finally she is ready, the textures are finished, and I am done customizing my baby.

I always felt with her like.. I do with old “Hippie VW busses” - so .. just look how she turned out!

You will fit right in here!

- One of the best opening lines EVER!

The first round with the Bandit IF!

Jasp and I met at RSYC, to check out our new babes. While we were trying and sailing, we caught Titus, the Commodore of the RainbowSails Yacht Club in his IF.

So we had a cruise/race down the Blake Sea Channel, around the buoy at Blake Sea - Carribean, and back to Snug Sea. I won.. well I would have won, if it would have been a race. LONG before the others I arrived at Snug Sea.

Back to Vindar we had wind from the front .. so we tacked with Autopilot to the marina, where I got a berth for my new babe.

Fazit: BUY THAT BOAT!! It’s perfect, great just amazing!

FINALLY - my Baby belongs to ME

For a person with a total lack in patience it was HARD for me to wait for her. But now finally, I got her MY Bandit IF. I had a problem with the name, but it came to me once I arrived at my marina. Faith shall it be, cuz Faith I had in Analease and Dutch - this boat is awesome! Thank you!

Now I’ve had the time of my life
No I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it’s the truth
and I owe it all to you
‘Cause I’ve had the time of my life
and I owe it all to you
I’ve been waiting for so long
Now I’ve finally found someone
To stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical
