There came a point in Luke Powell’s long lifetime in boats when he realised that the wooden ones, and the skills to build them, were disappearing. He decided to do something about it the only way he knew - hands-on. Since moving to Cornwall from Kent in the 1990s, the result of this labour of love is a fleet of beautifully, traditionally built pilot cutters: EVE, LIZZIE MAY, AGNES, HESPER, EZIRA, TALLULAH, AMELIE ROSE, FREYA, and the largest yet, the remarkable PELLEW, in which Luke had the time and the task to pass-on his accumulated knowledge to a future generation. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/747/PELLEW In preserving skills in this way, the wonderful by-product has been to create a desire for experiencing and owning these vessels. As Luke says: “There’s something quite profound about being on something that is not of our time... When you sail on a boat like this, it’s a time machine; it takes you back to another place; it’s not just an object of conveyance. Whereas a modern boat is like a car - just a factory made object that does no more than take you from A to B - PELLEW takes you through time and space.” PELLEW is a faithful recreation of one of the longest surviving and best documented of Falmouth’s Pilot cutters, VINCENT. The original boat was built in 1852 for the Vincent family of St Mawes. She worked for 70 years until she was retired in 1922, ending her days on the Percuil River as a house-boat. After four years in conception and build, on Saturday 29th February 2020 PELLEW joined a select group of leap year launched vessels when she was gently craned into the Truro River. One of the largest and fastest Pilot Cutters to be built in modern times, PELLEW has subsequently enjoyed the busy life of a successful charter boat. There is nothing like her.

Calanques, plages désertes et réserves naturelles. Seul, en couple, en famille, entre amis, une cabine, ou le bateau complet. L'île de beauté se découvre dans toute sa splendeur par la mer et nous vous proposons de la découvrir avec deux itinéraires : Croisière en Haute-Corse Une merveilleuse découverte de la côte ouest de la Corse, d'Ajaccio au pied du Cap Corse, en passant par les îles Sanguinaires, les calanques de Piana, la réserve de Scandola, la ville fortifiée de Calvi, Palo, site classé par l'Unesco. Les plages bordant le désert des Agriates n'ont rien à envier à celles des îles tropicales : sable fin et blanc, eau bleue et aucune construction à l'horizon. On n'y accède que par bateau ou sentier de randonnée. Caboter le long de la belle côte ouest de cette île ne s'adresse pas qu'aux marins chevronnés, mais à tous ceux qui ont envie de découvrir la Corse sans les contraintes des routes encombrées durant l'été et sans refaire les bagages à chaque changement de lieu. C'est une croisière fascinante où se succèdent des falaises abruptes, des anses profondes, des îlots minuscules baignés par une mer émeraude. Croisière en Corse du Sud Une merveilleuse découverte de la Corse, de ses forteresses et de ses tours génoises, de ses petites villes de charme, de ses plages et criques merveilleuses : Bonifacio, les Iles Lavezzi, Roccapina, Campo Morro, Ajaccio… La Corse, montagne émergée en Méditerranée est une destination de rêve pour les amoureux de la mer. Caboter le long de la belle côte ouest de cette île à bord d’un catamaran ne s’adresse pas qu’aux marins chevronnés, mais à tous ceux qui ont envie de découvrir la Corse sans les contraintes des routes encombrées durant l’été et sans refaire les bagages à chaque changement de lieu.
