Description
In July 2022 I plan to sail my Vancouver 27 from Brooklyn New York
to Sydney Nova Scotia and back, via the Bras d’Or lakes.
I expect the trip to take about a month starting with a direct passage to St Peter’s Bay.
The boat is essentially set up for two people so I’m looking for just one other
person to join me.
The Vancouver 27 was originally designed for a couple to sail from Canada to
New Zealand.
Since then these boats have circumnavigated the globe and voyaged from South Africa to Japan including a west about passage through the Magellan Straits (“Winter in Fireland” by Nick Coughlin.)
For my part I have over 5000 miles sailing one of these boats (single and double handed) including a 1000 mile non-stop passage.
