Catamaran Haul Out Time (PART 1)
Impi is a catamaran sailing around the world having left South Africa some years ago.
Now having crossed the Pacific Ocean it is time to haul Impi oput at Norsand Boat Yard and Marina in Whangarei right here in New Zealand.
Here we get busy with upgrading items to the boat including the replacement of the Yanmar SD50 sail drives to SD 60 saildrives (to follow in Part 2 of this series)
We also return to South Africa for our sons wedding and to visit family and friends – let alone much needed business to be done.
Ana’s sister Kris arrives from Belgium to spend a few days with us and so we tour around the Cape Peninsula with her and lets not forget poor Leon who has lost his fingers and a toe in an unfortunate incident. This event has a remarkable effect on us as we struggle to cope with the incident more than he does – what a wonderful man!
So folks – more of a story for family and friends and a little more of our background in this one – but we like to share and you are always welcome to join in 🙂
Catamaran Impi
Hi Everyone - We are a couple who gave it all up to be free of ‘day to day expectations and routines’ we as people grow up to believe is a ‘normal lifestyle’. The sea makes us feel free, so we followed the dream to move home from our farm in South Africa to a sailing vessel, a catamaran we call IMPI - and IMPI has been our floating home covering much of the globe over the past 10 years sailing full time. We are about INSPIRATION AND POSITIVE VIBES and much of what we do and share is about YOU, the viewers - OUR MISSION to interact with you all and make ourselves available to assist you as you make your dream become reality. We share beautiful places, beautiful people, our lifestyle and of course, for sailors, ANIMAL WELFARE, we share a ton of sailing experiences the world over, and we drop tips into many of our videos showing how we read weather at sea,how we navigate safely, how we maintain our boat and more. Please SUBSCRIBE with us - this is all about INTERACTION with YOU
