September 2010: Lucey Blue

11 September 2010

For the past couple of weeks, the Lagoon 42 Catamaran ‘Lucey Blue' and her owner Nick have called Woolwich Dock home, with wife Sam and children Emily (6) and Ryan (4) coming for weekend visits. The family bought Lucey Blue after meeting her and her previous owners in Fiji in 2009, and plan to take her on their own voyage in 2011.

Lucey Blue and family arrived at Woolwich Dock on August 21st for her annual haul-out and antifoul. Noakes shipwrights also repaired a damaged rudder shaft, steering quadrant and bearings.

While at Woolwich Dock the family discovered Deckhouse café and function centre and enjoyed breakfast so much that they returned with their extended family for lunch.

The family have been keeping a blog to document the acquisition, preparation and voyages of Lucey Blue. To see their musings on Woolwich Dock, the Noakes shipwrights and Deckhouse visit the Lucey Blue blog.
