47,000 miles and We still love the boat!

Proving that J/Boats are indeed great cruising boats, Leslie & Dick York from Rowayton, CT. have been living the dream and are nearing completion of a three year circumnavigation aboard J/46 Aragorn. Many of you may have met the York's at last year's J/Boat Mid-Winter Rendezvous where they presented some great slides and spoke about the voyage with J/Owners at the Pearson factory in RI. With visits to the Galapagos, South Pacific, survival of the Tsunami in late 2004 and much more, the Yorks are in a class of their own when in comes to experienced offshore adventure cruising. Recently, Australian web site Sail-World caught up with Leslie and Dick for an interview. There are more details and photos of the trip at the Aragorn web site.
