    Do you guys have any concerns with the current refugee situation. most of the threads I have read are not to concerned however they do have a habit of getting sidetracked.


    By the sounds of it, there is probably a fair chance that we may run into each other next year. Please feel free to add me to your friends list if your would like to stay in touch. happy to share any info we find on the way.


    Cheers

    Hi Debbie,
    Thanks for replying to my message. I will check out the Greece visa thing as that would be great and my wife has been pushing me to work it out so we can book flights.


    We are looking for a 40 foot cat as we are taking our 2 sons along and they need the room to run around. Ideally we are looking at finding a yacht around Greece or turkey, spending time there then heading up to Croatia. From there work our way west.


    The plan now is to head to Europe in late January, so we can do a bit of site seeing, settle into the culture and keep looking for the cat, most likely a lagoon. At the moment the plan is to only spend 1 season in the med however that still gives me 10 months to convince my wife to take longer. I would like to take a second year to head across the Atlantic but that will be a 10 month discussion.

    Hi Debbierogers,
    I just saw your post in the western med passage plan for newbies thread.
    My wife and I are planning on heading to the med next year as well. I also have the visa issue because of aussie passport however my wife has a English passport so am currently investigating options to get around the Schengen issue. If you find any useful info to get around the visa issue I would be grateful if you could share it with me.


    I am also interested in the process/experience you went through to buy your boat. did you fly over to look at it or just go off the surveyors report. How did you go dealing with brokers etc. what stragtegy did you use when making an offer, how did it work or any other info you think my be helpful.


    Hopefully I am not being to forward reaching out unsolicited however any info would help a heap.


    Thanks
    The Gman
