The story so far.....
Reckless of Hamble is a 12.25m sloop built by Westerly
yachts in 1999. She was moored in Gosport UK and skipper chartered
in the Solent until her owners Tim Moore and Chris Brown decided to
try their luck chartering her in the Med.
In 2005 she left the UK and continued
down the Atlantic coast of Portugal and onwards to the
Mediterranean cruising the Spanish coast and Formentera in the
Balearics. After circumnavigating Sardinia she made a home for the
winter in Cagliari.
In the spring of 2006, Reckless and her crew of two
cruised the east coast of Tunisia, Malta, Sicily and Corfu. She
then cruised the Ionian and the western Peloponesse to Crete where
she and her crew spent the winter of 2006/7 in Aghios Nikolaos.
The summer season of 2007 was spent leisurely cruising the Aegean
islands and coasts of Turkey, arriving in the Kekova roads, southern
Turkey, late September to join the Vasco da Gama yacht rally.
She then cruised the south coast of turkey and cyprus before
transitting the suez canal. Leaving the pyramids and sphinx in her
wake she dodged the coral to the sudanese marsa's, the coast of Eritrea,
dodged the pirates in the Gulf of Aden and made her way to the scented
shores of Oman.
So this is where we join Reckless and her crew of
two. In this site we hope to record some of the adventures of
Reckless and her crew.... |
