The dream to sail around the world has been just that for many, many years. After a decade or so of research, boat shows in Annapolis and family charters in the Caribbean, we have finally focused on a specific boat. The Antares 44 won our hearts and when our offer was accepted, things started moving more quickly than we expected. Financing, survey, documentation are starting to sort themselves out and if all continues to go well, we will have a boat a bit earlier than expected, never the less, the adventure begins.
