I am seeking information about a 3 masted steel hulled schooner called Sundancer. Registered in Australia.
Last I heard she was beached in Malta for repairs and that was probably 10 years ago.
The vessel was 3 masted, steel hull, low profile, 105 feet long, 12 feet beam, flush deck, hydraulic centerboard, drawing 7 feet with board up and 14 feet with board down. and when I last saw her she was painted black. I spent 3 years sailing on her and helped sail her around the world in 1988 for the Australian Bi Centenary celebrations.
The scuttlebutt I hear was that she was sold to the Maltese mafia and another that she was doing day sails out of Malta. Previous owner called Peter Keating.
I did over 70,000 ocean miles on her and gained my off shore skippers ticket, ocean masters and master mariners tickets for sailing vessels whilst sailing her around the Pacific and the world.
Any help much appreciated.
