I found this story on page YouYou. And I want to have them at home. It's like a postcard from a world that no longer exists. Author: Zbigniew Turkiewicz Source: Phantom www.polonialife.ca
A small, but so important fonda europa granollers in this story, island Beef Island is surrounded by the turquoise waters of the bay Trellis Bay. In the middle of the bay, at a distance of two hundred yards from the shore, on a small reef is spreading house, which, fonda europa granollers together with the yard occupies nearly half the area of the islet-reef. Bellamy Cay island was called, and the house - Last Resort. Now there is a typical restaurant for sailors, with good food, singing with guitar performed by Tony Snell, a restaurant owner and his daughter, Jessica Bamford; both lovers of Irish ballad fonda europa granollers keep it all in the mood shanties, even decoration of walls and ceilings are souvenirs from various plagues boats that arrived here. But Tony and his daughter did not know who built this house, when and why here on this rock. I have great satisfaction that I know that I can answer these questions ... but ... it's what I want to say it is impossible to put into a few sentences. That's the whole story. I think that is clear and understandable for the Irish, which, similar to the Polish events and passions scattered around the world. This is the story of Poland. fonda europa granollers House for Bellamy Cay was built from stone collected at the quays of the islands and it is the only stone house in the entire Caribbean. It was built by Władysław Wagner, a Pole. First, our compatriot, who in the years 1932-1939 under sail sailed around the world. On Beef Island built the first airport in the Virgin Islands. And that too few people know. Blurred traces, no one remembers. And it is worth it to unearth, in the tales appear fonda europa granollers three sailors: fonda europa granollers ibid Władysław Wagner, Ludek Meal and third, Austalijczyk David Walsh, who with each of them tried to swim to Polski.Zaczyna this story in July 1932 in Gdynia. With just built a deep-sea port yacht cruise flows "Phantom" with a crew. It proves Władysław Wagner, twenty scout from Gdynia, the originator of the entire project, and Rudolf Korniowski the same sea scout troop them. Jan Sobieski. Two other members of the crew at the last minute zrejterowało. Both of them have sea with little experience fonda europa granollers and too perfect yacht, with great hardships crossed the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, coped always raging waters of the Gulf of Biscay until they reached the ... end of financial strength. They stopped at the Spanish port of Santander. Without money and heavily battered jachcie.Jakiś penny there enough for it not to die of hunger, caught the production of postcards featuring yachts and sailboats. Rudolf had artistic jam, and Vladek apparently also something he could. At that time, Vladek sent to the Courier Krakowski proposal reportarzy cruise with the first officially given to the Polish indicating that it is a cruise around fonda europa granollers the world. It worked. Help came from the country. "Phantom III 'stopped in Lisbon, where it set off in a triple composition, then in Casablanca fonda europa granollers where the" Phantom "passes first major renovation were treated by the French Navy datarli wojenną.Do South America in early June 1933 but before they came to the Panama fonda europa granollers Canal, the two crews, Rafał Korniowski and Olaf Frydson who sat in Lisbon, zmustrowali from the yacht. Truthfully Władek should have done the same thing - "Phantom" for further shipping no longer eager. He was alone, without friends and without a boat, and he probably was not fun. Had a lot of trouble before our hero went on his way. Old, crumbling yacht sold. He bought a more powerful, but requires reconstruction. He worked, he wrote, reconstructed, finally, desperately ill. The fight against adversity took a year. But after the storm takes time weather. Through the Panama Canal overreached him ... "Dar Pomorza" - that our great, and at that time modern sailing ship was on a trip around the world, and on board were many of his friends and everything that his trip was missing: navigation equipment, instruments Navigation and prog. From that moment Vladek, setting off the Pacific had already patronage of the Polish Scouting Association, the fees, the new crewman, Joe Pawlica and a new yacht, which he called "Phantom II". It's already 1935 years, for the third year in a sailing trip. Pacific has not been kind to Wagner. Storms dismantle his boat several times, at various stages embarks returns dilapidated boat, again goes. With barely reaches Fiji and there "Phantom II" ends his sailing life. Vladek travels to Australia on board the Canadian steamer "Niagara", meets warm welcome of the local Polish community, but for the next your boat back to South America to Ecuador, where the buying and facilities next, the third already "Apparitions", is within the limits of its capabilities.
