G'day and thanks again
for joining us in 2013. We are currently working on a major redesign and
relaunch of the blog that will be live early May 2014 (returning to www.finallymydarling.com). Please check back
soon or in the meantime, like our Facebook page where we’ll announce the
relaunch. Our Lagoon catamaran finally my
darling is currently undergoing pre-season maintenance in Marmaris,
Turkey and our family adventure will continue very soon!
During 2013 and
our first nine months in Europe we dropped anchor in Croatia, Montenegro,
Greece, Turkey and made a quick visit to Venice, Italy. We’ve embraced simple
living and are excited for the year that lies ahead. In 2014 we’ll head west
across the Mediterranean toward Italy, France, Spain, Gibraltar and Morocco to
name a few. With plans to later cross the Atlantic to the Caribbean.
Our family
adventure is the realisation of dad’s 40-year-long dream to retire and explore
the world by sailboat. That dream took effect in March 2013 when we landed in
Croatia to take possession of the newest Darling family member – a 2006 Lagoon
440 catamaran. With 20 years in the Navy and several casual stints skippering
commercial motorboats with a Master license, dad has salt water running through
his veins. Although this is his first time owning a sailboat. Join us as we
adapt, explore and make some hard lessons settling into the wonderful lifestyle
of fulltime cruising.
