I got a new gig, being the captain of a 65 foot yacht. She's a Tripp 65 named 'Sirona'. The owner would like to do a refit and some yachting.
The first thing on the schedule is to do the refit down south at Thunderbolt Marine outside of Savannah, Ga. Hopefully we can delivery her in mid January and start the refit by 1Feb08. He would love to do the Newport to Bermuda Race in June. Then from there sail across to Barcelona for the remainder of the season to do some yachting.
He would like to have 'Sirona' in New Zealand for Christmas '08. I suggested that we sail and stop at different places on the way. For example the Canarie Islands and either Brazil or the Caribbean Islands then on to New Zealand. We'll have to see what transpires but that would be amazing. It would be really cool to captain her half way around the world. Only time will tell what the plan is but this is an option that would be unbelievable. I keep you updated.
