Mirabilis is a 43ft steel Finot sloop owned by Mike and Danica Stent. Mirabilis joined the family in 2010. We spent ten years living aboard with the Marlborough Sounds as our main playground. We've done a few bigger trips to Rakiura, Tonga, Wallis & Futuna, Fiji, Vanuatu and New Caledonia. This season we are back on the water again and sailing with our two boys (Arlo and Coen) around the Fiji islands. Home port is Mana, NZ. Mirabilis is named after the nudibranch Jason mirabilis. Nudibranchs are rad.
