Something out of left field:

Our 32-foot sailboat, Wrack, will be in the western Med' within a couple of weeks. I'm toying with the idea that artists, scientists and others might utilise her next year as a mobile, floating platform for creative/research projects or as a retreat.

Any interest?

I'd remain aboard as skipper to navigate and maintain the boat, as well as mentor occasionally. There would be accommodation for 2-3 guests.

@ccohanlon sounds like a great idea. I wouldn’t be able to next year but perhaps a year after that!

@ccohanlon

Perhaps it would be good for artists, but it’s not suitable for scientists, at least not for marine environmental scientists. I saw how much equipment and power they need on the schooner at our city university.

@arbusis I have actually skippered voyages for scientists on smaller yachts. While fully equipped research vessels are often large, there are various projects in which smaller vessels have an advantage.

@ccohanlon Wouldn't I love it? But I don't think it would be possible for me. I hope some people will have the occasion to enjoy it.
