David shares the story of his latest love affair, after falling for Seabreeze III, a 48-year-old classic 105-foot motoryacht, that he is acquiring for the rapidly growing, Ocean Sailing Expeditions fleet. After stumbling across Seabreeze III, 2-months ago and reading all about the painstaking restoration undertaken from 2019-2021 at a cost of more than $3.3m, by the current "motivated vendors", it was just too hard to go past. David openly shares the story of the roller coaster ride with Ocean Sailing Expeditions over the past 5 years and why this addition to the business makes total sense, even though its powered by motor and not sail. David dives into the business history, challenges, set backs and growth story. If you own a boat or a business, you'll relate to many of these challenges. This episode includes an exclusive new, one-time Membership and Shareholder offer, to help fund the acquisition of the vessel.

Seabreeze III will operate around New Zealand, offering cruises and expeditions to the Bay of Islands, Hauraki Gulf, Marlborough Sounds, Nelson/Tasman Region, Fiordland and Stewart Island, in the warmer months of the year and head to Fiji for 4 months each winter.
