The yacht is a comfortable practical yacht. It is not a plastic fancy thing that you wouldn’t want to be at sea in any sort of a blow. It’s also a good passage make. It was designed in the 1970‘s, , it has a folding propeller so sails in light breezes. A classic layout below deck, one double V berth in the bow, two single berths in the main cabin with Lee cloths, these make very good sea sleeping berths and one double berth in the stern with also Lee clothes. Compact galley, very efficient small fridge. Insulation under the decks that keeps it cool in the sun. The deck layout allows short handed cruising. A wind vane Aires removes the tyranny of steering. Modern electronics, Radar, AIS Transponder, VHF and SSB communication radio. GPS and sextant, plus the usual, a cockpit shower, ( sea water ) So bring a supply of salt water shampoo, reasonable amount of stowage. Lots of spares, very self sufficient. Even a portable generator if we have to solve a bigger problem. A good music machine that you can play from a pre recorded usb fob or blue tooth, my taste in music is Variable. But don’t like shouting boy or girl bands nor Rap.
I prefer sailing slowly rather than using the engine. We cary light weight sails, spinnaker, cruising Schute, loose luff Genoa and also storm sails plus a roller furling 140% Genoa and a mainsail with 3 reefs. I prefer being at anchor than in a marina and have dingey, plus outboard. Making food on board is more fun usually than restaurants. I could go on but will be happy to answer questions if you decide to join me

This is my floating home, you are joining me by invitation and we can enjoy it together if we are respectful to each other and our yacht. It’s as much yours as mine when you are aboard. We will have to clean and ongoing maintenance to it and she will look after us. Then we can put away the tools, plan the next destination and enjoy together new discoveries over new horizons. We will learn from each other and enjoy each other’s company. For me the journey is interesting and important , not just the destination. My motto is do to others as I would like done to me. I am always open to all ideas.
