About the boat, the plans, and current crew

The boat is 35 ft c/board wooden sloop in good condition...kept at the yacht club in Bowen. She is sloop rigged, somewhat gentle to steer wooden racer/cruiser of old, restored and very seakindIy. I have sailed most of my life and trying to cruise it full time and occasionally a bit of racing. I have sailed many a mile both with crew and solo. This part of the coast is safe well known and untamed. I am waiting on good weather and then i am off sailing hopefully with fun crew.
