Wenceslao and Sylvie have acquired a 12-meter Voyage 40 catamaran, built in 1986, currently docked in Mindelo, Cape Verde.0:43 The vessel requires extensive interior remodeling, cleaning, and re-equipping to become functional for long-term cruising.2:41 Initial inspections revealed a disorganized interior, though the boat features LED lighting throughout and a unique head configuration that discharges directly into the sea, a setup the owners intend to address to comply with waste disposal regulations.3:11 The couple purchased the catamaran at an accessible price point due to its significant maintenance needs.5:27 While performing these refits, the owners are consulting pilot charts and local knowledge to plan a 2,700-mile passage back to Valencia, Spain.6:50 They are evaluating two primary routes: a northern transit via the Azores or a coastal route through the Canary Islands and Morocco, with a target departure window between April and June.7:35
