A Carlota, com esta história dos símbolos dos anos oitenta, foi mexer com um símbolo muito especial para mim. Aqui fica ele, com o seguinte pedigree:

20 ‘ Rob Craft Marine, customized, Deep Vee monohull, 2.6 Ton net weight, 2.000 x 1l empty poliethylene bottles floating , 2 x 90 HP Yamaha with trim and tilt, 6,5 m telescopic outriggers, power steering, full gauge equipment, including Furuno echo sound fish finder and GPS, CB and UHF radio, power steering, 600 l fresh/salt water capacity, two berth cabin, maximum speed empty 38 knots, recommended cruise speed 28 knots at 4.500 rpm.

CV

- Decoration for relevant service rendered to rescueing and transporting refugees during devastating tropical hurricane (Domoina);
- 10 years of continuous running condition, including approximately 5.000 hrs overall running, including three trips from Maputo to Ponta do Ouro via Canal Santa Maria, Ponta Abril, Ponta Malogane, Reserva dos Elefantes, etc. and one trip to Bilene up to Praia das Tartarugas;

The FAME logo was designed and digitalized by self and stuck on the hull in 1986.

Pronto, Carlota, tinha de ser. Não tinhas nada que vir mexer em recordações de quem está aqui quietinho sem falar no assunto.
