What's going on with the boat?

After ten years living on Tarquilla we have moved to land. I'm often asked if we love the house or miss the boat and the real answer is - both. We still have Tarquilla and we are open to all options at the moment as far as her future is concerned. We will carry on working on her, it would be great to be able to sail her again. The Scilly Isles, Portishead marina, Bristol harbour and Falmouth are all places we have talked about as well as many others further afield. But, on the other hand, if a family was looking for a boat, ready to do the preparation she needs and wanted to take her on then we would sell her. She is not ready to sail off into the sunset but has a lot of life left in her. If you or someone you know would be interested then please contact us. She is 3 ply cold moulded, 42 foot long, one off design built in the 1960's. She has 2 double cabins and 2 single berths, a good size saloon, a decent size galley, head and a covered cockpit. She has two engines and a full suit of sails. We have lots more photos and can provide more details or answer questions. In the meantime, this blog has come to a natural pause for now as we take on new adventures.

Blogtober 16 - Twitter & Facebook

The other day I talked about our Instagram page so here, in an effort to join up all our 'social media outlets' (!), I thought I'd mention our Twitter and Facebook.

I'm on twitter as @sarahontarquilla. Tweets can vary from boat and sea related stuff through outdoory things to work related things.

Our facebook page - Tarquilla - features our second dog, the first sea dog Susie as the profile picture. Lots of sea related stuff, what we're up to and pretty pictures.
