SV Aquila

A Yamaha 36 Sloop

Aquila is a 1983 Yamaha 36 Sloop  built in Shizuoka, Japan. 

Tall, fast and lively, she is ready for spirited day sailing and cruises off the coast.

We clear the harbor and the wind catches her sails and my beautiful ship leans over ever so gracefully, and her elegant bow cuts cleanly into the increasing chop of the waves. I take a deep breath and my chest expands and my heart starts thumping so strongly I fear the others might see it beat through the cloth of my jacket. I face the wind and my lips peel back from my teeth in a grin of pure joy.
