COVID-19 HAS STOPPED SV SKY FROM SAILING

SV SKY will not be able to sail the second half of the World ARC until the COVID-19 virus is under control. At this point all we can do is wait until Australia will allow visitors to go to Australia. We still hope that the World ARC 2020 second half will start in Darwin, NT, Australia in September of 2021.

SKY is at The Boat Works in Coomera, QLD, Australia after having gone through a total renovation of electronics, hydraulics and engine room issues in the spring of 2020. SKY is in better shape than it has ever been with major improvements made after 16,000 miles of ocean sailing.

We will update the site as we obtain more information in the future.

Our Mission

SV SKY is entered to sail around the world in the World Arc 2019.
Our goal is to raise as much money as possible for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Won't you give $25 today?

The Boat SV SKY is a custom-built, 57-foot Vaudrey Miller designed by Simonis Voogd. The 4-cabin boat was designed to sail the world. Jopie Helsen owns the Sailor’s Wharf Yacht Yard where all the renovations and design changes are being made for easy and safe sailing with the latest in electronics, sail design, and sail handling.  Why the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society We chose the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society because of their dedication towards finding a cure for blood cancers and chronic diseases. There are a lot of fantastic cancers societies out there. However, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society does research on several types of cancers.
