"To realize my desire to see the world at my own pace, I needed a yacht.  One that was affordable, and capable of crossing oceans.  So, in my backyard, I built a yacht, of wood, with which I have crossed an ocean, and so begun my quest."  Dean C Swift, builder and skipper of Lucky Linda

Lucky Linda, out of LaHave, Nova Scotia

     A holiday in Nova Scotia with a sail aboard Lucky Linda,  to catch a glimpse of a whale or two.  A visit to the quaint village of West LaHave where time stands still, where stress is non-existant and a stop for tea and fresh home-made bread at the old-fashioned bakery.   Halifax, with its bustling waterfront and casino. 
     Peggy's Cove, with its natural scenic beauty, an artist's dream.   Lunenburg, the home of the Bluenose,  Mahone Bay with  its breathtaking beauty,  Liverpool and its privateer legends.

Lucky Linda at anchor, Flores, The Azores

The Azores, an outline of garden-like islands on the horizons of the Atlantic Ocean.  Peace and quiet, flowers in the fields, in the villages, in the houses.  The blue and green of the dreamy lagoons.  A pace of life in which there is time to stop and appreciate living.  Art treasures that recall pages of a centuries-long history.  Nature in its original splendor.  A meeting of the past involved in everyday life.  An invitation to discover and experience a different world, repeated on each of the nine islands of the Azores.
