This exciting project will provide a world cruising charter/expedition vessel with special design considerations for cold climate sailing, based on Greenland experience, such as strengthened bow and water tight compartments for safety.  A hydraulic lifting keel giving a draft of 1.5m to 3m and a lifting rudder for ice work and to enable us to sail very efficiently at 8-10 knots whilst still allowing access to restricted anchorages.

The build only took place during the summers, other work commitments pending, during the first 3 winters.  Andy is now working full time on the build, therefore, we foresee build completion in 2009. 

Once complete, initial sailing will be done in Scotland (West coast). 

The following year will hopefully see a return trip to Greenland, forging further North up the West coast.  We then hope to head South (a long way South), taking in warmer climates on the way.

We are also investigating sailing / ski touring options for Norway.
 

 

Let us help your dream holiday become a reality.  "Feel the flow of life", carve a wake that will continue rippling on forever.  Sail with us and never forget the experience.
