Greeting from a newly minted boat owner. Hallberg-Rassy 42 F in Grenada.

Hello,

After couple of years of lurking, planning chartering and sailing on the lake, and on other boats all over the world, from Norway to Svalbard and Alaska, we made a big plunge. We purchased Tevake, a beautiful and well maintaned 2001 42 F Hallberg-Rassy, on Grenada. After a short survey visit we put her on hard and plan the first proper weeklong shakedown sail around Grenada and Grenadines during the Thanksgiving week.

We are still working, so the plan is to take off for a week every month in the begining of 2019 to slowly bring her North to Carolinas where we will still reside for most of 2019.

We plan to take her from Grenada to Antigua/St. Martin in January, then to Fajardo, Puerto Rico in February, then next jump would probably be to Providenciales, Turk and Caycos in March.

Any comments or advices in general or about places/people where we could leave her for a month of so in Antigua or St. Martin, Fajardo and Providenciales would be apprieciated.

Best.

Pawel

Howdy and Welcome Aboard CF Pawel!

From your post, it sounds like you have bought a very good boat, have good sailing experiences under your belt already, and have a great new adventure ahead.

The HR is a fine line of boats. Congratulations!

FYI: I will be sailing to Antigua (arriving about November 15th), and available as crew in the Caribbean after that, just in case you want another hand on your boat to help you with preparation, or for your upcoming voyage in the islands or to the North etc.

Have fun on the forum and on the water too.

Steadman

Thanks,
We have crew for the Grenada-Antigua, and Antigua-Fajardo tentatively signed on, we may seek a crew for passages north from Fajardo, or if current crew plans would change, will keep you PMed, best.
