I&#39;ve got a huge back deck, another that is closed and underneath a sun deck. Let&#39;s not forget my diving platform!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>After navigating as a leisure boat for divers in Turkey, I was abandoned in Bordrum&#39;s harbour (Turkey). My health started to deteriorate and rust got hold of me.</p> <p>For the first time, on a beautiful morning in January 2017 I met Thierry. He is a very nice Frenchman who wanted us to navigate again and go on an adventure. It was love at first sight!</p> <p>After the exchange of a bag full of &quot;Yesil Erik&quot; (small Turkish green prunes), the deal was quickly sealed with my previous owner.</p> <p>Thierry explained everything to me: First, we would navigate to France&nbsp; (Leucate Harbour) where I will be fixed up. And once ready we would go to the Antilles: in Port-Luis Harbour, Guadeloupe. What a wonderful schedule, I thought!</p> <p>So, in July 2017, after my two engines has been changed, after enduring an earth quake, a small tsunami and after witnessing for the first time a Breton Privateer&#39;s tantrum, we finally got to sail to France.</p> <p>W arrived in August 2017 in Leucate Harbour where I saw myself being pulled out of the water to get fixed. I have to admit I was pleased to be taken care of as my machines weren&#39;t working too well any more.</p> <p>My new owner decided to give me all the new technology as well as an attractive appearance, so I could navigate and pleased many new passengers for many years to come. There is a lot of work to be done!!</p> <p style="text-align:center">&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/573086/thalassa_port_la_nouvelle-1551007030.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/577180/int_pret-1552228574.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p style="text-align:center">&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/572910/Cuisine_et_pont_int_avant-1550918517.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>Everything in me was checked and changed, so I could become an environmentally friendly boat. My engines are low consumption in fuel. Same goes for my compressor and generator. I have a tank for used water and WC waste disposal. Nothing is rejected in the ocean.</p> <p>The wheelhouse has been changed as well as the navigation system. The kitchen has been reorganized with new equipments (plancha, fridge...). Patrick will now be able to prep delicious meals for the passengers.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/572928/cuisine_refaite-1550924446.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/573093/timonerie-1551012957.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/573095/avant_fini-1551016022.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>Work is done after delays, additional charges and imponderables (hole discovered in the hull of the boat.).
