SV Unladen Swallow

SV Unladen Swallow was home to Lee & Brownie Hutchins . We retired early and sold everything to buy this 2002 Beneteau 47.7 First in December of 2020. Since then we have sailed almost 8,000nm and done 2 parts of a 3 or 4 part modernization focused REFIT. Highlights include 2000W of Solar, 1200 AH of Lithium batteries, new electronics and a new swim platform to support our Scuba Diving habit.

This subsite is going to contain the tale of our journeys aboard this boat up to its loss to Hurricane Beryl on the island of Carriacou in Jul of 2024.

The journey continues on SV Unladen Swallow 2 at this site

We look forward to sharing our adventures with you!
