Indian Ocean feedback
Wednesday, November 26th, 2008Thinking of another part of the world?
Sailing Vessel Georgia is based currently in the Seychelles.
A recent guest commented:-
“We have been cruising the inner islands for the past 5 weeks and have each time managed to find quiet anchorages, quiet beaches and some of the most beautiful water I have seen to swim in, we have been quite active with watersports.”
The Seychelles offer a great cruising ground, of that there is no doubt, and something we would like to explore further whilst here. Georgia is based upon the main island of Mahe where there is a basic infrastructure sufficient to service the yacht.
The climate is excellent, very warm with nice quiet winds and big ocean swells that roll across the islands. They have been fishing regularly while at sea and have caught an innumerable amount of small Tuna and one big Wahoo. The sea is really quite alive with fish and if not catching them all the time it is good to see.
The crew have been sailing Georgia as much as possible through the islands, much to the enjoyment of all of the guests ad crew alike, the captain says it has been fun to get all of the sails out and sailing off the anchor without using the engine is a big hit. The main engine is started for safety reasons and to run the hydraulics, but is not loud.
The Seychelles have a lot to offer, the crew reports the weather has been clement and inviting, They are very keen on chartering either in the Seychelles or in the Maldives.
