Nonstop is a 1987 Jim Young designed, and New Zealand built Young 99. She is a 34 foot long sloop with a successful racing history in our ownership, that has been modified for cruising with important stuff like a bookshelf and more storage for wine.

Peter and Ellen headed up to Tonga late May 2018 then across to Fiji at the end of September. Nonstop will go to bed in a cyclone pit at Vuda Marina in December, then we will continue exploring Fiji in 2019.
