Congratulations and best of luck with your Vertue class yacht . The Vertue yacht has great bones so its worthwhile restoring her back to voyaging standard. My partner and I have lived aboard our Vertue 'Tui of Opua ' for 26 years and still enjoying the life . Bruce
Hi Bruce. I have heard word of Tui of Opua and her beauty. Nice to hear from you. Sorry, but I need to look at comments more often. Is there any boat with better lines? You must agree, having studied them while building Tui and made that kind of commitment with every station and plank. You and your wife are an inspiration. I admire your dedication to the boat and focus on maintaining a life aboard. Cheers to you two
Congratulations on acquiring the famous Sparrow and thankyou for sharing her on TH-cam. I have one of her sister ships (no. 23) who is also getting a deep refit.... At least you have to worry about the engine not starting😅.
Good luck with your refit project. I’ll try to post more as I go and perhaps we can keep in touch as discoveries are made. Enjoy the process. Little islands are just the best, eh?
All the best , ehjoy
