Swan Song (61953)

Swan Song was the name given to our boat by the previous owners, George & Susan. They met 20+ years ago while racing, he was the skipper and she was foredeck crew. They are now in their 80's and it was time to switch to a slower life on a motor yacht. My wife and I met racing 20+ years ago, too. We were crewing on other people's boats at the time but then we bought our first boat in 2016, StarGazer, a Valiant 42, and lived aboard for five years. When we sold her, we thought there wouldn't be another boat but now, at 60 & 70 years old, we decided we're not done sailing yet. Life is good!
