It is known that PAZIENZA raced regularly in the Mediterranean in the late 1950s, winning the Giraglia in 1959 with Andrea Giuseppe "Beppe” Croce at the helm. In 1960 she was used as an official yacht to transport important personalities during the Rome Olympics including; it is rumoured the future President Kennedy and his wife Jackie. Her tall powerful rig makes her ideally suited for both light Mediterranean airs as well as effortless ocean crossings. Since the 1960s PAZIENZA has been raced and sailed far and wide; winning ocean races as well as classic regattas in the UK and the Caribbean. Her previous owners included Pete Townshend who won Falmouth Classics on a number of occasions. Her present owners since 2004 have raced and cruised extensively, including the inaugural Transat Classique in 2008/9, taking line honours on the leg to Agadir and podium position on the Atlantic leg. PAZIENZA is currently moored on a tranquil berth on the River Dart and is lovingly maintained to the highest standards.

This is about as close to live as we can get. Andy has sheltered in place at a hurricane protected building and I have gone to Brandon which appears to the be where the eye is going to make landfall. I can't get outside now as the wind and rain is really strong. Andy is able to see the boat via the marina webcam and she appears to be doing well. I do belive we are about 2 hrs from landfall. Other reports from friends that the water in the ICW that connects the channels to the Gulf of Mexico at clearwater harbor and Clearwater Beach appears to be lower which means the water is being taken from the hurricane as it did with Ian 2 years ago. Wish us luck as we contine to go thru this hurricane. Prayers to all in the path of it. This one is nasty for sure!
