BEJASUS finally named

[Bejasus]

Finally, after a few months of getting the boat USCG documented, we have now renamed the boat which we purchased last October, in Mississippi..
Due to nasty weather conditions in the Gulf in January, we couldn't move her and so I had a skipper deliver the boat to St. Petersburg in Florida while I returned to work in Denmark. Whilst there, we have had all new covers made for the hatches, winches, windlass and sails, including a stackpack for the main. We also had our liferaft recertified and a new rip and outboard delivered. Two weeks ago we began to move the boat around to Savannah in Georgia. It was an interesting trip, involving storms and dolphins and the accompanyment of a Bowman 42 singlehanded by BOB who definitely had more than his share of problems along the way.

Congratulations - she looks great!

I see the one in Greece is still up for sale.

 

[Bejasus]

Thanks, yes the one in Greece is still up at what looks like a reduced price, however, no instruments to speak of and teak decks that need attention and a few other things. Still, has a 120hp 6 cyl Lehman engine, but still the VAT proof problems to overcome as well and they weren't very helpful.

Bejasus is one handsome boat that just radiates a go anywhere capability. Wishing you all the very best - here's to Bejasus and all who sail her./forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Cheers Stevie, she has certainly stood up well to some pretty serious weather thus far, and she has come through well. She is very comfortable to live on, and we are looking forward to spending many happy years cruising with her.
