We are Anthony & Cindy. Our boat is Impavidus (Latin for Fearless) In June 2018 we decided to retire early, we sold everything to sail around the world on our modified Bavaria 37. In our First season we made our way from our berth in Port Solent, Portsmouth, England. Down the South West coast of England to Dartmouth and down to the Mediterranean We crossed the North Sea/English Channel to Roscoff in France. Working our way down to Brest and on to La Rochelle, France. We spent the summer sailing around the Bay of Biscay and down through the Spanish rea’s and on to Portugal. From there we spent two weeks on the river Guardiana on the Portuguese/Spanish boarder. We entered the Mediterranean in September of that year and eventually stopped in Almeria Spain for the winter. Since then we have sailed on, through Spain, the Balearics, (where we spent 3 months) before heading back to the mainland of Spain to Barcelona and then on through Southern France and down the West Italian coast and its beautiful islands. Eventually finding a wonderful family run marina where we have wintered in Gaeta, Italy. Our two doggies Oscar George and Lady Rose are sailing with us. Both quite old they have adapted well to life aboard. We have been sailing and boating for 35 + years. Both starting at school in England; But we still learn something new every day! We are hoping to sail down the Italian coast to Sicily and on to Greece or possibly Croatia this year. We have had Impavidus since new in 2015 and we spent a full two years, while still working, adding to the equipment and inventory. Everything we thought we would need….. AIS, Long-range fuel tanks, Extra water tanks, rope cutters, a Brunton Auto prop, Extra solar, extra batteries, a freezer. Then all the ancillaries and equipment we needed. Tools, Spares, Clothing, a Rib and new outboard engine. A life raft and lots more.

Full test in Multihulls World N°202: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/dragonfly-36-performance-for-gliding-along-as-fast-as-the-windWe had the opportunity to sail aboard the Dragonfly 36, recently elected Multihull of the Year in the Sport Sailing category, in the company of Jens Quorning, the head of the shipyard which bears his name. This trimaran, in its Performance version (with a rig that is over six feet / 2 meters taller) is undoubtedly a fast and enjoyable multihull to sail. Without too much effort, you can be sailing at the windspeed... In terms of design, the 36 is the first Dragonfly to feature three inverted bows - until now, the central hull has always retained a traditional bow shape. Below deck, the new interior design features double cabins forward and aft, a separate bathroom, a fully equipped galley and a spacious saloon. The standard finish is in ash, with elm as an option. Like all Dragonfly models, this trimaran can be folded thanks to its optimized Swing Wing system. It takes just 1 minute and 30 seconds to reduce the width from 26’8” (8.12 m) down to 12’2” (3.7 m). As for the pivoting appendages, they make it very easy to take the ground, as we were able to see for ourselves. By the end of the International Multihull Show, the shipyard had already taken 27 orders, representing more than two years’ worth of production... Read the full test in our next issue (Multihulls World #202, out in digital format at the end of May).
