The boat
FOUNTAINE PAJOT Tanna 47
NAMING THE BOAT
The boat was named after our two miniature dachshunds pictured below. The older one is named Bonnie and the younger one Nova, Bonova being the conjuction of the two names. Both are happy to be on the boat from time to time.
Unfortunately, with travel restrictions for pets they will not be able to sail on Bonova until it returns to Australia.
