Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi
My plan for 2022 is to sail the yacht to Tahiti or Western Australia depending on work commitments and covid restrictions, around May for approximately 3 months in preparation for a much bigger adventure in 2023 where I'd like to fulfill a life long dream of sailing around the world visiting as many countries as I can.
About the boat, the plans, and current crew
usually cleancomfortablevery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spaciousshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamface challengeslive off the grid
The yacht is a Steel 56 foot Ganley and has been built to tackle most sea conditions. There are 3 cabins, large galley and saloon, workshop, full bathroom.
Its fully equipped with all necessary safety equipment essential for off shore sailing.
I also have dive gear, SUP boards, fold up E Bikes etc onboard.
The Electrical system has been upgraded to lithium batteries and a larger solar array.
Before departure she will be getting a new set of sails.
It is a very comfortable live aboard yacht with loads of room
