Ach, płyń, płyń, płyń, łódko moja...

"Row, Row, Row Your Boat..."

The boat that we will sail is a German-Polish project and made by the company HANSE.

Model Hanse 415 with registered name S/Y "NORD STAR" is built from laminate of glass fiber, having 3 double cabins, two bathrooms with shower and toilet, fuel tank 160l and fresh (drinking) water tank 520l. It has a cooker, oven, fridge, and freezer. The 40 HP diesel engine allows at a speed of up to +- 10 knots. The NORD STAR rig is a classic mainsail with Lazy Jack and roller-furling jib. It has 200W solar batteries, a 220V inverter, deck instruments, navigation and safety equipment required for ocean cruising. I am sure that Katon (Radek) will present everything in a separate post showing what it is, what it looks like, what it is used for, etc. I will add note that we will have the latest communication systems on board, including "StarLink" satellite internet and GARMIN "InReach" GSM tracking system, which will allow us to be in constant communication while on the ocean, and to track our position live.

Here are some facts about S/Y Nord Star:
