David and I retired early, 1989, moved on board Mary Kate and  travelled the Med, Inland France and European Atlantic until as full time live-aboards until 2003.  We then bought a tiny place in Sevilla, Spain and now share out time between there and wherever we have left Mary Kate.  She is currently in Ayvalik,Turkey; we decided to do the Inland route there this time and had an incredible trip down the Danube in 2008.Mary Kate is, I believe, the only sloop-rigged Nicolson – the choice of her original owner, Captain Chiltern who sailed her in the 1972 Ostar.
