Hydrovane News

Below is Will & Sarah’s Beneteau 405 at anchor in Caleta Partida, Mexico and the celebration of crossing the equator which has a bigger significance for two crew members. Will’s brother, Ben, while crossing the equator proposed to Katy, the other crew member and his girlfriend of  many years. They have just completed that 2,700 nautical mile passage  to the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia in 19 days – but still online/connected – if you need Will or Sarah either of them – just email…….. or see them. They will be parking the boat in Fiji in time to make it to the Southampton and the Annapolis boat shows.

A Windvane Renaissance

“…the windvane will make a comeback as a new generation of eco-aware sailors begin to reassess the value of simplicity and a brilliant piece of kit that needs no power.”  quote from David Glenn, Editor of Yachting World – August 2012.
