Songline went to her new owner last week. Many thanks to all who kept us company along the way. There are wonderful memories to enjoy.

Swallowing the anchor

We love Songline, but the time has come to "swallow the anchor" and move ashore. She is now for sale and could be the answer to your dreams. Check out the website... to find out more about Songline and all her extras and how to make her your dream machine.
Vessel Name: Songline
Vessel Make/Model: Lagoon 410
Hailing Port: Brisbane Australia
Crew: Phil & Kristina
About: We are from Brisbane, Australia and bought Songline in the UK in early 2008. We sailed her home via the Med, the Caribbean and the Pacific with a little help from family and friends.
Extra: Songlines are dreaming stories often used in Aboriginal and other native cultures as navigational pathways to travel long distances. Singing the story enables one to travel along the songlines to traverse unknown country.
