Voyage to Date

                 Sunset in the Atlantic                                                                 Indian River - Dominica

Started in Turkey aft a final re-fit in Yachtmarine, Marmaris, Turkey during the winter of 2016/17.

It is fair to state that it is very difficult to find a full service situation with reasonable prices, excellent access to materials, equipement and experience and qualified people to match or better the facilities in Marmaris.

In June 2017 we sailed from Mamaris, accross the Aegean to Monenvasia in Greece the on to Kalamata where the mast was removed for full serving and painting; then on to Italy visiting Regio, Lipari then to Marina de Regusa, Sicily for the winter.

In was decided to sail east from Sicily on April 15th 2018 to Greece circumnavigatiing the Peleponese starting in  Argostoli, Cephalona thru the Corinth Canal ending in Kalamata  in September 2018.

In September 2018 a Fall sail thru the Med. visiting Italy, Spain and Gibraltar .  Not so pleasant this year due to weather conditions.

In late October 2018 sailed from Gibraltar to Madeira and The Canaries where we are spending Christmas in Santa Cruz, Tenerife.

 Late December sailed for Cape Verdes and then Westward to the Caribbean arriving in Dominica,

February 2019 finds us in the Caribbean sailing South to Grenada via Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Bequia, The Grenadines including the Tobago Cays.
