Hello, Oleksandr63,

Welcome aboard, CF.

Got any pictures of your boat to share? (There's a big difference between 26 feet and 26 meters!)

Ann

Bula from Fiji Oleksandr63.

Very sorry about the war.

Hoping that you'll gain help and useful information from the forum and that benefits in helping you to achieve your plans. Also don't forget to complete your profile.

Also do feel free to post your own thoughts, questions and ideas. The forum only works when people post, and 95% of members here seem reluctant. Don't be a lurker.

Re: Hello residents of this forum!

Welcome aboard! There is a fellow who posts a video about the war on YouTube every day. He ends his broadcast with “I wish you peaceful skies”. Is that a common Ukrainian saying? By the way, I fly a Ukrainian flag at my house in support of the Ukraine.

Thanks for inviting me on board.
I don't know the guy you're talking about. I think that there are many such people in Ukraine now.
I haven't heard this phrase spoken colloquially. I wrote it because I think so and feel so.
I was asked to show a photo of my yacht, I showed it. But that's all that's left of her. My yacht is no more, and my house is no more. My wife and I managed to survive and escape from the combat zone. When tanks are shooting and mortar shells are flying around you, it is very scary. Therefore, I wish everyone never to hear or see this. And not to find ourselves in the situation in which we found ourselves.
And now a lot of Ukrainians think and feel the same way as me...
Let's not talk about sad things anymore. It's very hard. We are alive and that's the main thing!
