We had spent around 2 years looking for the perfect boat, a boat that was well built, and could be refitted to safely take on some of the most challenging races in the world. Having previously owned an Erickson 380 this was our preferred choice. Finding one of suitable age, condition and of course within our budget was going to be a challenge. Our search was world wide. We first spotted what was to become 'Our Boat' in December 2023. Advertised for sale in Rockland, Maine, USA. Our negotiations began and from there a new friendship with the former owner and his wife. The idea was coming to fruition, we were just at the starting line of what is likely to be a marathon rather than a sprint.
The Starting line.
