We were very sad to sell Baringo but glad she had gone to good owners who are experienced sailors. We returned to Europe/UK and found being without a boat unusual and we succumbed to the boat-less syndrome and in November 2019 we bought a 10 year old Dufour 405 for sailing around the Med. It is an attractive looking boat and we hope to have some good sailing with her in the future. Currently the new Baringo is on the “hard” at St-Mandrier-sur-Mer in the south of France. We are having several jobs done such as new rigging and some minor repairs and hope to launch in April 2020.  We will continue our blog intermittently with information about our trips in the Med.
