A handover in Palma
The new chief arrived with a suitcase too large for the cabin she would get. I liked her immediately for that. She was staying.
We walked every cupboard. I gave her the ugly truth about the laundry door and the beautiful truth about the owner. Then I had a coffee on the quay and did not look back at the sundeck.
A boat is never yours. You keep it well so the next woman can look like she was always there.
