When we decided to sell up and
live aboard we decided we needed to sell the
boat as well and find a larger one. We really loved our Nicholson 35. An elegant boat and a perfect under sail.
After having seen many boats, we decided we wanted another Nicholson. We did not aim larger than, say, a 40 footer, but after having seen a 48 we decided that this would solve all our
storage problems. We found the right one sitting quite unloved in a Greek marina. We bought her and had her transported to the
Netherlands by low loader as she was not
seaworthy at the time.
We have given her many presents since, like new seacocks all-over, new
sails, new decks, a new coat of
paint on the
hull, a lot of new running
rigging, a lot of new
varnish in the
interior, new upholstery and lots more, and finally it looks like she starts loving us in return.
Fabulous sailboat, not really too large to sail between the two of us, very comfy in port and at sea. So, here she is (sister ship)
happy sailing
