About

Our Crew

On any ship, the crew are really special and they make the difference between a good experience and a great experience. Len and Sue have lived and worked Tall Ship THANE together for over a decade. Between them, they have plenty of experience both in coastal waters as well as offshore; and their professionalism shows. Both have lead lives that were a little different from mainstream and that's reflected in their personalities. Aboard the THANE guests can expect to be treated like friends who have come to share Len and Sue's lifestyle; which makes the trip a great experience! Here's a bit of background on each of the crew members.

The Vessel

Slocum's voyage alone around the world 100 years ago is among the most famous feats of single-handed voyaging of all time. 'SPRAY' was given to Slocum by a friend in 1892. The vessel had been abandoned in a field seven years earlier. Slocum rebuilt her, then in 1895 struck out on his voyage. Alone aboard the 'SPRAY', Slocum covered 46,000 miles in three years. The boats hull form enabled it to self steer under sail. The 'SPRAY's' sailing performance is legendary. 'Sailing Alone Around The World' is Joshua Slocum's account of his voyage. It has been in publication since 1900 and has been the inspiration for many 'SPRAY' replicas including the 'THANE of Victoria'.
