Overview
About this vessel
This OPUS34 sailing yacht has been in my ownership for 22 years. It is designed and built in Denmark. From first sight I decided that if the circumstances one day would arise for going long-distance sailing on my own keel, I would do it. After sailing in northern waters, I made the decision in 2013 to go to New Zealand. I spent 2 years preparing the boat with all necessary equipment. This also included a cruise from Denmark to the northeast of Greenland. I named this one a "Test of Man and Mast." I wanted to test myself, having a crew onboard, and of course the boat. It all went really well.
So in July 2015 I left Copenhagen with the waypoint of New Zealand in the sea map. After crossing half the globe, the crew and I successfully docked here in New Zealand. 32 crew altogether, in turns of 3. In my ownership I logged about 40,000 NM.
In recent years the mahogany/maple cabin floor and all the teak on deck and on the cabin top have been replaced. All the above-water paint has been professionally painted in original colours. You will see the same colours presented in the new fabrics down below. Extra water/diesel tanks and all needed equipment for blue water sailing have been installed, including complete navigation Furuno electronics.
