This blog is about the trials and tribulations of buying a second hand yacht overseas and then bringing it up to a reasonable standard suitable for blue water cruising. It is aimed at technically minded, budding owner skippers and anyone else who wants to know the viewpoint of one person who has “achieved a dream”.
Most of the initial work (details in a further post) was undertaken (firstly) during a two month period in the British Virgin Islands in 2008 and then over another two month period in 2009 in Trinidad. The boat was on the hard during both these periods and we were lucky enough to be able to live on board whilst undertaking these repairs and upgrades, saving heaps of money on accommodation. Some repairs had to be undertaken whilst cruising; not always a good idea!
