Arguably the lifting keel allows them to explore waters out of the reach of normal cruising yachts. Bought to fulfill a long-held blue water cruising ambition.

YCHOU III was purchased in France and has sailed the Mediterranean, South of France, across the Atlantic, Caribbean, Bahamas, east coast of the USA, New York Island Sound, and Florida where it currently resides. The boat was bottom painted in mid-2021 where the lift pump for the keel was also serviced. Standing rigging was replaced in 2014 prior to its Atlantic crossing. New Air Conditioner installed in 2021.
