The Hans Christian Christina 40 is a Scott Sprague-designed cutter-rigged sailboat, built by Hans Christian Yachts since 1986, with a fin keel and rudder on skeg, measuring 12.1 meters LOA, 3.9 meters beam, 1.8 meters draft, and displacing 10,205 kg. Aboard *Garrett’s Adventure*, a 21-year-old sailor purchased a Christina 40 in Fiji for $45,000, a discount due to extensive osmosis damage, after sailing a Nor'Sea Marine 27 for 6,500 miles.0:07 The Christina 40, displacing 22,000 pounds on a 33-foot waterline, features a cutter rig with roller-furling genoa and staysail, a Yanmar 66-hp turbocharged 4JH-TE engine, a 45–50 lb Rocna anchor with 180 feet of 5/16 G4 chain, and a solar arch powering Starlink and refrigeration.1:33 The crew undertook a refit in Fiji, re-caulking windows with Sikaflex, patching hull blisters with epoxy, and replacing a fuel pump, then later repaired 86 osmosis blisters in Australia for $4,000.11:05 The boat sleeps four to six, but lacks a Hydrovane or wind vane, which the owner plans to add for single-handing. The crew experienced a grounding on a sandbank in Port Macquarie, Australia, due to misreading satellite charts, and freed the boat using a spinnaker halyard and dinghy.11:04 Mechanical issues included a leaking heat exchanger drain plug, a jammed windlass, and a stiff headsail furler, while a four-degree port list was corrected by shifting weight.8:50 The boat sailed from Sydney to Nelson Bay and Broughton Island, relying on manual steering due to a non-functional autopilot and unfavorable winds, and required underwater hull cleaning to remove barnacles.3:47
