WELCOME TO THE
S/V "LIBELLE" PAGE!

Thank you for your continuing interest in the Libelle adventure.  I am happy to finally be able to offer you "one stop shopping" for old emails and bits of new information about the trip. 

This trip is the dream of my Mom, Rosi Allen, and her companion, Jim Rust.  We wish them all the best!  :-)

Meet the Crew!  (and me)
Rosi is on the left, I am on the right. 

We are in Libelle's salon area. 

This picture was taken when Charles and I went to visit Mom in Folly Beach for Thanksgiving, 1998
This is Jim at the helm as we pulled out from Mariner's Cay in Folly Beach, SC. 

I took this picture on May 3rd, just before they left on the trip
