Olin J. Stephens is said to have described COURAGEOUS as a cross between a New York 32 and an International 8-Metre; who are we to argue. This entrancing and fabulously authentic yacht does indeed have all the good looks and attributes of the legendary NY32s - stretched to the length of an 8-Metre. Her large, exceptionally comfortable and deep (and therefore safe) cockpit confirms her origins as Arthur J. Iselin’s Long Island Sound daysailer, but her spacious yet intimate accommodation and undoubted sailing ability and provenance hints of much longer cruising possibilities. And COURAGEOUS’s offshore racing past and recent form in #classic #regattas confirms her as the most beautiful all-rounder.

In this series of videos I will be documenting my experiences as I fix things, break things and alternate between the pleasure of sailing and the sheer terror of narrowly averting disaster. In other words, the life of a sailboat owner. Click the subscribe button to follow along.
