Hi! My wife Armelle and I own Galaad, a Bavaria 44 Ocean, since january 2004. She has beeen launched in march 2003, and was previously own by the local Bavaria dealer. The boat has been equiped for short hand cruising, as we mainly sail just both of us, and we are over 50: main sail furling, powered genoa winches among others. Nevertheless, there is quite a lot to do to make this large boat sail at her best ! As we dwell only at a 15 minutes drive from the marina (we know our luck !), the boat is always ready for sail, and we take her out only a few days in winter for cleaning and painting the hull, changing anodes, reviewing the motor etc... In july 2005, we enjoyed a two weeks cruise in South Britanny, an area where very nice anchoring places as well as welcomming marinas can be found. The picture shows how "tropical" this place looks like, eventhough the sea temperature was only 15 °C ! Best regards Hervé
