Ta-b

Ta-b is a 46 ' Fontaine Pajot Bahia Maestro and she has been our home for the last ten years.  We sail with just the two of us on board, I am Jane originally from England the the "Captain" is Russell originally from New Zealand.  Our boat is Canadian registered as we brought up our children in Vancouver and it is where we call home as they are still there.  We have new adventures in front of us, and plan to sell Ta-b at the end of this year after our last sail around the Pacific.  If anyone is looking for a extremely well loved offshore boat please let us know.  Ta-b is totally set up for long distance sailing with Stainless Steel Bimini including four solar panels, wind generator, all reefing lines set up to work from the cockpit, generator, compressor, water maker, the list goes on and on and don't even talk to me about parts.  Everyone tells us what excellent condition she is in.  Our plan is to leave Opua around mid May when we will sail for Fiji.  Carpe Diem
