This spotless 33′ Grady White Express is powered by a pair F300 Yamahas, with only 350 hours on them. The spacious cockpit provides ample room, catering to both fishing enthusiasts and those seeking a relaxing hangout space. Notable features include a convenient transom door, a foldaway upholstered transom seat, and a refrigerated fish box. There’s a BRAND NEW 6 kW diesel genset on board (less than 3 hours of use), a Smart plug shore power cable, a factory-installed hardtop, and an enclosure with a drop curtain. Safety and navigation equipment include an EPIRB, dual VHF radios, along with two large-screen Raymarine units that integrate GPS, fishfinder, and Radar functionalities – cleverly designed to fold away when not in use. The boat is equipped with 3 Yamaha gauges, Bennett trim tabs paired with a gauge, a Simrad auto-pilot, bow thruster, remote spotlight, and windlass. Exterior cushions re-stuffed and replaced summer 2023. The boat also comes with tuna spears for the serious anglers. Belowdeck, you’ll find a mid cabin and a forward double berth. The galley boasts ample storage space, along with modern conveniences like a microwave, refrigerator, Corian countertops, and a 2-burner electric stove. Adding to the interior’s appeal are the cherrywood dining table and teak and holly sole. All interior cushions were replaced summer 2022. A spacious head includes a shower complete with a vacuflush toilet.
Giorno 21 - ultime 500 miglia! Se penso che fino a due mesi fa 500 miglia erano il record mai percorso no stop mi viene da ridere. Oggi festeggiamo perché ne mancano SOLO 500! Il vento in questi giorni intensifica il suo soffio e probabilmente il 7 verrà giù anche un nell’acquazzone. Quella di questi giorni è la perfetta occasione per sperimentare tutti gli incastri possibili del nostro assetto velico. Genoa + trinchetta Genoa + gennaker Gennaker tangonato Perché no, Genoa + tormentina! La randa la usiamo poco, perché i venti che spingono e l’onda oceanica non vanno d’accordo con una vela così impegnativa. Oggi siamo arrivati a un passo da Genoa + Genoa di rispetto (issato solo sulle bugne perché l’inferitura è già occupata). Finita questa premessa nerd, possiamo tornare a parlare delle cose che piacciono a me. Come ci sentiamo? Siamo in trepidazione! Qualcuno sa spiegarmi come mai trascorriamo 40 giorni insieme senza patire minimamente l’arrivo e a TRE GIORNI dalla destinazione sembra che non esista altro al mondo a cui pensare? Tutti che ragioniamo sulla prima cosa che faremo una volta toccata la terra. Chi vuole baciare il terreno, chi vuole andare al primo bar ad ascoltare musica in mezzo alla gente, chi vorrebbe continuare il viaggio. Che esperienza ragazzi. E non è che all’inizio. A domani!
