Owners comments

"In 2014 an opportunity came up for us to leave land life. We were tired of the rat race and feeling unfulfilled. We sold our house and possessions and purchased our Oyster 56’. With our three-1/2-yearold daughter, we embarked on an adventure of a lifetime.

After circumnavigating the Mediterranean, crossing the Atlantic Ocean with ARC, and spending years in the Caribbean and the east coast of America, we’ve enjoyed over 45,000 miles of making magical memories.

BritIcan has been more than a home for us. She has been a family member. She has shared our memories of love and laughter. She has protected us during bad weather.

In return, we’ve tended to her every need. We took care of Britican, and she indeed took care of us. Our lives went from stress, monotony, and mediocrity to freedom, adventure, and fulfillment. Many people asked us where our favorite spot was.

Interestingly, it’s not an anchorage or a destination that made our travels incredible. It was the people we met along the way. The sailing cruising life is not always easy, but it’s a way to live that makes life worth living.

Last year our daughter expressed an interest in going to school on land. Around the same time, it became clear that our parents required assistance with various medical complications. At first, it hit us like a ton of bricks. Both Simon and I thought we’d sail forever!

There’s a time for everything; we’re so grateful we took the risk and lived our dream. We couldn’t have had a better boat or a more fulfilling journey. We hope that a couple or family will be able to enjoy Britican as much as we have."
