Extra:

Aquarius is a Ted Brewer designed centre cockpit ketch manufactured by Olympic Yachts in Greece during the mid 70's. She has a hard dodger which is great during long offshore passages or in inclement weather. She is equipped for distance sailing with large tankage and all amenities including SSB, Radar, Autopilot, Solar and Wind power as well as large battery banks and watermaker.
Aquarius is a proven blue water cruiser having been from Greece to Victoria, Canada through the Panama Canal with her first owners and then onwards as Walhachin, to the South Pacific and New Zealand. We are raring to continue the tradition as soon as we can. In the meantime we have been enjoying Mexico and are currently sailing Aquarius back to the Pacific Northwest.
