    I owned this boat from 1992 until 2007 in Washington state USA. and had many years of fun times. The boat was named Happy like me when I had her. I would like to contact the present owner if possible as I have all the log books and baby pictures of when it was under construction in Kowloon and would like to see about getting them to the owner. Made me think about good times watching the video.

    Ahoy, The owner that we delivered the boat to Adelaide for sold it approx a year after we delivered it. As far as I know the person who purchased it was local to Adelaide. A fair amount of time has passed since I've been in Adelaide so I'm not certain of it's whereabouts now. I'll see what I can do.

    Fabulous clip! I have a 41 foot Formosa ketch (built in Taiwan '74) totally renovated by me and a shipwright 9 years ago - a similar style boat to yours. So I found your clip particularly interesting. Have done a ton of coastal voyages and one 4 day voyage out to Lord Howe Island...but looking forward to doing a voyage like yours (in reverse.) Your boat looks beautiful and in excellent condition btw. My boat is called 'Diana' ;;; maybe we'll meet somewhere down the way...all the best.

    Ahoy, Happy you enjoyed it. This particular boat isn't mine, the video was made whilst delivering the boat for the new owner. Unfortunately, I don't have any footage of the internals that I can show you.

    Hi Guy's, liked the video a lot. Just a question, we have the same model just without the flying bridge. Same hullshape but a cutterrig. Ive seen quitte a lot of motoring/motorsailing in the video. We like to think although she's not a runner but not realy a slow sailer. do you feel different or was there just not enough wind/time?? Thanks Danny

    Hi Danny, Short answer... Tiger Lilly is not our boat, this was a delivery trip. The delivery began in San Diego and ended in Adelaide, Australia. For a 43ft boat at 22 tonnes, we found that this particular boat required a fair bit of wind pressure to push her along at a reasonable speed under sail alone.

    Thanks Jim. The catamaran belongs to a friend of mine, Peter. It's a Dean 40 Aero and her name is Lunatic. This shot was taken from inside the Knysna Heads, South Africa by a local photogapher. At the time we were on our way out through the Heads for a sea trial, the 2 people onboard are Peter and myself. To answer your question.. we made it out that day, and back in again. 2 weeks later we set sail for Australia. The trip took 40 days with a couple of hairy moments along the way. Lunatic in now berthed in North Haven Marina, South Australia.

    I only managed to get a 3 minutes into it. The music was too much. A proper narration would have been better rather than listening to Bryan Ferry. Not that I don't like BF, just that it becomes irritating when trying to watch a sailing video but only marginally less so than than with the sound turned down.
