This boat is the fourth I have built for myself. I like living on the water and experiencing the world, so I built the proa Gaia 1 in 1990 and one year later the proa Gaia 2. I then sailed to Australia with Gaia 2. In 1996 I began building the mono hull Love of Gaia as Gaia 2 was too small to house a family.

She is a seaworthy boat having sailed 40,000 miles from England to New Zealand via the South Atlantic, Indian Ocean and Tasmania. Oryx is the culmination of that experience.

Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Climbing the hill that flanks the valley last year, I found an interpretive sign created by neighbours who live on the other side of the hill. It gave an insight into the original inhabitants, the malakerdee band. My own reading found that they had lived on the eastern shore of the Derwent River and following a dispute with a tribe on the east coast of Tasmania had relocated to the Huon Valley.
