This one did not go to plan. Rather than follow the crowd and go along with the Sail to Indonesia Rally fleet to Banda Nera, we intended to day hop along a series of islands from Kei Kecil to explore the remote and seldom visited northern coast of Seram in north western Indonesia but the weather didn’t play the game. After a first night stop at Pulau Kur where we were unexpectedly met by machete wielding youths, we struck out north for a short passage to an island where we had identified three likely looking anchorages. Unfortunately the wind and swell conspired against us making all of them untenable, so we elected to sail on through the night to a Plan B but, when it and then Plan C also didn’t work out, we were forced into coming up with a plan D. When we did finally find shelter add in getting summoned by local officials and having Police onboard and this episode makes for an interesting tale. We hope you enjoy it.

Built locally in Sidney, this Yar 26 is simply “wow” when you step onboard this piece of nautical history that was described as the “boat of tomorrow” by their designer. Every bit of this boat has received meticulous attention to detail by extremely knowledgeable owners that have lovingly re-finished “Gryphon” during their years of ownership. This mighty little ship is built to cruise comfortably off-the grid throughout the PNW, supported by tanks that carry 50USG of fuel and 75 USG of water with the added bonus of a solar panel to keep the 4 x House batteries fully charged. Finished in custom oak, this vessel was repowered with a Beta diesel engine that only has 525 hours and provides a comfortable cruising speed of 6-7 knots with exceptional fuel efficiency. Electric windlass, auto-helm, large fridge, hot water, dinghy and a 2.5hp Suzuki outboard are all part of the package. Available with assumable moorage at our Sidney location, this vessel is available to view by appointment. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office to schedule a showing.
