Comments The good is that this is one of the best boats out there. The bad is that we were tossed up on a remote reef in a storm at 3am and had to abandon ship. We spent 12 hours on a desert island and were rescued by a passing Kiwi sailor. The Nai'a did all she could to help but it was a bad time for all.
