Utopia’s unique features include a steel double bottom for strength, wooden hull sides for warmth, and twin Detroit diesel engines. Visitors can marvel at her elegant lines, learn about her global circumnavigation, and appreciate the craftsmanship that has kept her sailing for decades. Utopia currently resides under the stewardship of the her new owners based in Manitowoc Wisconsin, where it continues to inspire curiosity and passion for the Great Lakes among learners of all ages.
A delayed check-in from day two aboard hull #1 of the new FPY 70S! When I filmed this the other day, we had motor-sailed through the night with the wind behind us and were preparing for 25–30 knots later that evening. We’ve since made it through that weather, but here’s a look at where we were at that point in the journey. We were also lucky enough to spot a few whales along the way. You can just see one of them spouting in the distance in the video 🐳 I’ve also been enjoying some time in the galley, cooking a chicken curry and a few other meals for the crew. It’s been a great trip so far, but the real highlight has been having the opportunity to experience this boat properly at sea and see how she performs over longer distances. The more time I spend aboard, the more impressed I am. Follow along for more from my time on board!
