The Boat – Das Boot

After many years of working towards it I was finally able to purchase my dream boat in December 2021.  Maya is an Amel Super Maramu build in 1992.  The boat is a sturdy blue water cruiser designed to circumnavigate the world.  It is self sufficient for everyday use at anchor.  The solar and wind systems produce enough electricity to run the fridge, freezer and even the washer.  We only need the generator to desalinate drinking water or after a few gloomy days.

Amel is a French shipyard located in La Rochelle. Amel build between 1988 and 1999 a total of 243 hulls of the Super Maramu. The successor is a somewhat improved Super Maramu 2000 build from 2000 to 2007 with about 247 hulls.

I am the 3rd owner of the boat and it has previously half way circumnavigated the world. The boat went from France to Africa and then towards French Polynesia where she is located today. My current intensions are to explore French Polynesia for several years and then head towards Hawaii, mainland USA and Canada.
