Kalessin of Orwell in her home berth at Suffolk Yacht Harbour on the river Orwell.
We've had to give up this berth (you pay for the whole year in one go) so once she's launched she will be on a swinging mooring at Pin Mill.
Kalessin is a Westerly Storm, built in 1988 and previously rejoicing in the name Box Bee. She is just over 10m long with a beam of 3.5m, and she displaces 5.1 tonnes. She has three cabins and a very fine loo, a spacious galley and a number of unnecessary luxuries such as pressurised hot water. We have owned her since September 2004 when we sold our Sadler 29, Magewind.
Kalessin of Orwell is a 33ft Westerly Storm. In 2006-8 we sailed her down to Portugal, into the Med, and home through the French canals. In 2011 we explored Baltic Germany and Denmark. After Sam's stroke we cruised gently on the East Coast, the Netherlands and Brittany, and in 2021 sailed to Cornwall and back. In 2024, following Sam's death, Camilla plans a memorial round-Britain cruise
