Greg working in Advertising for BBDO International in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Japan. During that time we had a Tayana 42, Crystal Dancer, built in Taiwan and had it delivered to Hong Kong. After 4 years we sailed her to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia for our next posting with BBDO. We sold Crystal Dancer when we were transferred to Tokyo. Our daughter has now married and has 2 beautiful children, Jade and Lachlan. In May 2006 we took delivery of Volare in Longbeach California and spent 1 1/2 years sailing her back to Australia and eventually mooring her in Batemans Bay. We coincidentally live in Long Beach. We have just completed a 6 months owner/builder renovation of our beautiful Cottage and it is available for holiday let on www.stayz.com.au/68358. We're on the move again on Volare
