Greetings from Sussex

Hi All,
I am based on the south coast of England and currently searching for a 25 ft-ish day sailer to use from Brighton Marina. My crew is far more interested in warmer waters and after several years of flotillas in Greece and Turkey we have booked a six week bareboat from Lefkas in the Greek Ionian with a view to sailing around the Peloponnese in May-June this year. No doubt my passage planning will lead to plenty of questions in the appropriate parts of the forum.
All the best for sunny sailing - Ian Lisseter

Hey Hove... good to meet you.. lived up the road from you for a coupla years in Hastings... used the Marina a few times in the past tho'....
Good luck on the boat hunt...
Can recommend the GK24 as a nice boat that'll take you to France at least easily... unless your looking more up market....
