Anam Cara

In August we took the major step of purchasing our own Yacht! She is a Sadler 29 based in Mylor. Lois and I went for a sail with her owner, Bob, and we were very impressed. She has a glass fibre hull with a double skin, therefore supposedly unsinkable. More importantly she is very well insulated and soundproofed. She has a deep fine keel which means she will be good at sailing offshore and will make good headway to windward.
Our idea is to use her in three main ways. One as a family yacht for fun sailing with friends and family, secondly for Serendipity Sailing cruises and thirdly we shall charter her out with Cornish Cruising to help pay for annual running costs. Our daughter Mary has joint us a a joint owner to make this all possible so we are very grateful to her.
