2014 was a great sailing year for me! It was my first time sailing in the Pacific and I had a super time!!
I left Australia in July, tutoring a 10 yeas old boy during term 3 of school. We sail from Brisbane to Vauatu, where we spend 2 and a 1/2 months around the north islands of Vanuatu; Espiritu Santo, Gaia, Vanua Lava and Reef islands, snorkeling, diving, beach comb, flying remote control planes and quadrocopters.
Later I joined another sailing yacht in Fiji. From Fiji we sail to Opua Marina, North Island of New Zealand. The trip took us 10 lovely days. We had one person very sea sick on board, so the captain and myself had the share everything between the two of us.
Back to Vanuatu, Port Vila, I was invited to help sail a great catamaran, 48foot, 5 stars luxury Fountaine-Pajot Salina called Kimberley Rose, to the beautiful New Caledonia!
From Nuomea, NC I joined another cat 42 Lagoon and sail to Bundaberg, Australia.
From 2015 to present, I joined The Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron (RSYS), located in Kirribilli, Sydney, racing with a J 42 sailing boat, named Euphoria. My job is at the front deck, where I am in charge of the head sails and of course the spinnakers. I love the launch the spinnaker and get that huge kite back on board again! It is an exciting job and I love it so much!
2016 I delivered a 50 foot catamaran from Nuomea to New Zealand, again destination Opua Marina.
A very fast catamaran, we reach around 16 knots speed! WOW, I loved it!! The trip took us only 6 days, from Isle de Pin. At isle the Pin we dive, snorkelling and enjoy the company of some local friends.
Started 2018 sailing from Sydney to Hobart, departing on 2nd Jan and arriving in Sandy Bay on the 14th of Jan. We did 646.39 NMi, surfing the coast of Tasmania.
2019 started in Hobart, when I was invited to be part of crew deliver Papilion, a 40 foot Arch bold racing boat.
2024 ready to explore the the pacific islands.
