A Canadian classic, only 160 Ontario 32’s were built and and we are thrilled to have Hull #15 on our Sales Dock at our Sidney location! Stepping aboard it is apparent that “Bandit” has been lovingly maintained and upgraded by her Owners of almost exactly two decades. Complete with a full cockpit enclosure, hard dodger and a hard bimini equipped with solar panels, these spirited sailing vessels can often be found on club racing circuits as they sail beautifully. The large roomy interior is extremely well appointed with a large v-berth, enclosed head, comfortable main salon with seating around a large centreline positioned table, pilot berth, aft galley and plenty of headroom and storage. What makes “Bandit” different than her sister-ships are the new eye-catching stainless opening ports that not only bring in ventilation, they provide a ton of natural light into the cabin space. Repowered with a Beta diesel engine, Bandit comes with a Highfield RIB, Mercury outboard and assumable moorage at your choice of either North Saanich Marina or our Westport Marina in Sidney. Available to view by appointment, please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing.
Ci eravamo abituati alla morbida e alta onda lunga oceanica. Questa notte abbiamo lasciato la marina Rubicon di Lanzarote per raggiungere la marina di Las Palmas, sull’isola di Gran Canaria. Dopo poche miglia a vela il mare inizia a innervosirsi presentandoci una corta, alta e fastidiosa onda incrociata. Non riuscivi a stare in piedi! Ogni cambio turno ci si lamentava delle condizioni con chi sopraggiungeva, che a sua volta non era riuscito a dormire come avrebbe voluto. Tutto sommato la notte è comunque passata. Siamo arrivati a Las Palmas e ci siamo messi all’ancora. I prossimi giorni saranno di preparazione della barca per la traversata. Adesso andiamo a dormire presto per recuperare le ore dormite poco e male questa notte. Buona befana a tutti! Andrea
