Title: QUO VADIS


Tystie - December 23, 2007 09:23 PM (GMT)
Model: Evolution 25
Name: Quo Vadis
Built: 1982
Engine: 10hp outboard in well
Registration No: SSR 122212
Mooring: Dunstaffnage Marina, nr Oban.

This boat spent its early years out in Dubai where it was purchased by its previous owner who was in the navy. She was shipped back by him. Although overwintered in Yorkshire she was sailed in the west coast of Scotland.
We bought her in 2006 with the intention of sailing on the east coast of Scotland which has shallower water and drying harbours. We could not find a berth so have remained at Dunstaffnage on the west coast where we previously sailed a jointly owned Moody 33S.

Initially we had great problems with leaks through the decks and windows. We have gradually got on top of these. We have given her a new suit of sails and roller reefing and upgraded the electronics. Last summer we fitted a solar panel.

Due to back problems we did not get a huge amount of sailing in 2007 but did manage 2 week long cruises. Retirement approaches so we are looking to get a lot more time on the water.

She is overwintered under cover here on the East coast of Scotland so we have trailed her across Scotland a few times.

This picture shows us at anchor in Loch Drumbuie in the summer of 2006
