Chris Wicks’ Kaliope is back on the water for another season of blissful Mediterranean sailing in Pelion. Kaliope’s first time out for 2013 included a picnic at Zasteni and ice cold beers at Horto… oh, and a great sailing breeze too!

The Cape Cutter 19 has turned out to be the perfect boat for our family, although it took us some time to discover it. We’d met someone with a Drascombe longboat, who took us for a sail in it. We were immediately struck by shallow draught, stability and large amount of space (especially compared to … Read more
