We have a Wauquiez 38 built in France in 1982. We are currently in the Bahamas heading north to east coast US and here have very much appreciated the shallow draft of a centreboarder drawing 1.3M. We left Victoria BC in 2010 sailing westwards through the Pacific and Indian Ocean and then to South Africa. We love our Sage and find her a quick and comfortable offshore boat easily handled by 2 people. More information can be found on our website Sageonsail.com
