This boat is perfectly named as “Simplicity” is what the Canadian built Nonsuch is all about: one sail, one sheet, one halyard. We are thrilled to have a beautiful 30′ example on our Sales Dock as they very rarely come to market! Designed by Mark Ellis, Canadian Boating magazine sums up this cat-rigged vessel as ” being able to be sailed by 1 person who has no desire to leave the comfort of the cockpit”. But don’t let this description mislead you as there is tons of room inside and out for crew and guests. Topsides the large Main is easily handled hoisting via electric winch and lazy jacks make light work of folding the sail at the end of the day. All lines lead aft with self-tailing winches and the large cockpit is protected by a dodger and bimini. Anchoring is made easy by the Lewmar electric windlass and this vessel comes complete with davits for easy launching and recovery of a dinghy. Down below, the rig design creates an extremely open cabin space that feels much larger than her 30′ LOA. Entering the cabin you find a large comfortable seating area, galley with fridge/freezer, lots of storage, 2 burner stove and oven and pressurized hot and cold water. Moving forward, the large head (with separate shower stall that can also be used as a wet locker) can be accessed either through the main cabin or by the forward master cabin with large pullman style berth and opening hatches and ports for ventilation throughout the vessel. Available to view by appointment, Simplicity comes with assumable moorage at our popular Sidney location. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing.
Giorno 15 - IONIO Il nostro viaggio verso la Sicilia prosegue. Come dicevamo ieri, aumentano i giorni e aumentano le miglia. Per curiosità, finora ne abbiamo percorse 570, partendo da Lignano Sabbiadoro, in Friuli. Ci fermeremo in Sicilia? Neanche per sogno. Ma tempo al tempo. Ci sarà occasione di sederci a tavolino, guardarci bene negli occhi e raccontarci i progetti futuri. Per il momento godiamoci il presente. Il nostro ci vede a navigare nel mar ionio, durante una giornata calma, priva di vento, povera di onde e di grandi variazioni. Trovo avventure sbirciando nei libri. Per essere precisi, nelle avventure di Ulisse, narrate attraverso la penna di Valerio Massimo Manfredi, nel libro “Il mio nome è Nessuno”. Così, mentre Julia scivola su mari tranquilli e Odisseo si prepara alla guerra contro Priamo, io e Andrea prendiamo le misure di questa nuova vita, accompagnati dal nostro felino del cuore. A domani ❤️ C.
