CassandravillE is a 1996 Elf 26 catamaran that was bought in Cape Town in 2015. After an extensive refit, she started the long voyage around Africa in May 2017 finally arriving in Watamu, Kenya (East Africa) in late November 2017.
We have done a number of adventures in her since then including 2 Dar Tanga Yacht Races (2018 and 2019) which is the oldest, largest and longest yacht race in East Africa. We hope to compete again this December 2022.
We recently sailed up to Lamu, a 900 year-old UNESCO World Heritage Site in northern Kenya and hope to do it again this coming October. (We even considering even sailing just a little further and into Somalia and then going up to cross the Equator!)
