OWNER REMARKS:
After a long search I found Gaia and bought her in July 2017 and have enjoyed 6 seasons of trouble free sailing mainly in the Southern Ionian area. We have also ventured further afield with a return crossing to Sicily and a round trip taking in Crete and the Cyclades. Gaia has exceeded our expectations providing comfort and safety in an easy to handle yacht even in demanding conditions.
She has been professionally maintained by Vliho Yacht Club during my ownership with many cosmetic and practical enhancements. With her new Vitron solar panels (2022) she is pretty much power independent.
