The Crew: Let's see, first a little introduction: Geoff is English and I am French (maybe it is for that you noticed some faults and a few mispelled, oops!). We do not have either of us sailing backgrounds and did not take any sailing courses, we learn from our skippers, trials and errors and other "Yachties". If you are more interested by the boat, you can check the Builder & Designer Websites below, or just click "The Yacht" folder on your right.

When we met, Geoff had a motorboat, Zulu Impi, a nice and fast Sunseeker which we used to explore the Mediterrenean Sea. I immediatly love the "Cruising Life" and really felt like "A fish in the water".
Seeing that the sea was second nature to me, we decided in 1998 to buy a sailboat, Blue Dawn of Sark, and we left France for a 3 years trip around the world. We had a Skipper for the first two years and then when we started to handle the boat properly, we continued the journey on our own.
It is now 10 1/2 years and going strong towards our second circumnavigation.

If you have any questions please feel free to email us. We will also be delighted to hear any tips or suggestions you may have.

So let's talk soon, we are looking forward hearing from you and "Welcome Aboard"!
