Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Cruising Galicia this summer. The trip back north will start October 8th from Vigo.
The yacht is a beautiful classic wooden yawl built in 1920, designed by the genius Max Oertz, and has been constantly maintained and improved over the years. It can be described as an "gentleman's yacht", built as a pleasure boat, with style and sport, qualities which remain today. It is designed strong for comfortable sailing on big oceans for long periods, turns heads, when you enter anchorages or marinas and overall very enjoyable to sail.
She can sleep up to 8 ppl, but mostly we sail with max 4(-6) persons on board. I really enjoy having a mixed international crew (because it means we can fly more flags and can learn about our cultures…)
The yacht can be run single handed, so its not mandatory to come with sailing experience, just some willingness to participate and bring your own skills in.

Micha, with a lot of sailing experience is a relaxed captain, who enjoys travelling & adventure and still likes to welcome new people to share the experience. As a trained engineer, he can fix pretty much everything on the yacht, which he owns since 26 years.
As any sailor will tell you, our plans rely on the weather so we try to give ourselves plenty of leeway. No precise schedule, we try to go at a relaxed pace, with plenty of time for diving and snorkel, making music and explore the local way and just living aboard. Panatgruel‘s 100th birthday is already a while ago, but we sure find a reason to celebrate.
