Ep 20 Sailboat Shopping-Grand Soleil GS 50
We head to Fajardo, Puerto Rico to look at a 2004 Grand Soleil GS 50 sailboat. The 2001-2007 GS 50s are Judel/Vrolijk designed, and have naturally beautiful lines. Slight changes were made starting in 2008, and the boats were produced until 2013. A new Botin and Carkeek designed GS 50 was introduced in 2014.

We're cruising couple Kevin and Wendy, and we're sailing the world in our completely upgraded Oyster 485. We packed up everything, rented the houses, and headed for Troon, Scotland where the boat was located. We closed in late 2017 and following a major electronics refit (the first of several) headed south to the Mediterranean. One season morphed into a second, then a third. And then the Caribbean beckoned. We participated in the 2019 ARC, and have been cruising there since. The adventure continues ...
