We have been waiting for a while to tell everyone about our news but now is the time is right. We have sold Serenity III to a lovely couple in Northern Ireland and hopefully she will be as good to them as she was to us but the time had come for us to upgrade … Read more
After a fantastic 6 hour sail down to Grenada, we anchored just before dark and as we watched the sun settle over the horizon we realised how lucky we were to see so many beautiful islands in a lovely part of the world and to do it on our own on such a unique yacht. … Read more
It was hard to say our goodbye’s to Bequia, but if there is one thing for sure we will definitely be going back again and I have to say I really enjoyed this island so much and I would recommend everyone to visit here at least once. As we sailed south we had to stop … Read more
