We left the UK in 2000 and sailed to the Med where we spent some years then in 2009 left for the Red Sea and on to India
2011 we arrived in Langkawi Malaysia where Hydrus now lies. Langkawi is a beautiful cruising area with golden beaches wonderful scenery and places to explore and also a very affordable place to keep a boat.
This year 2012 we have fitted 2 self tailing winches' a new lofrans 1000watt anchor windlass, new compass and new toilet.
The antifoul has been taken back to gelcoat ready to be reepoxied and topsides resprayed in anticipation of our next passage on to Australia and new Zealand Unfortunately now due to circumstances we have had to put Hydrus up for sale
