The+Anam+Cara

Our boat is a 30 foot Albin. Albins are built in Switzerland.[|Information on Albin Marine] *The boat was originally owned by Donni's family friends and God Parents, Trevor and Shirley Hill. They named the boat Santee for the S&T in their names. Trevor was a math professor at the College of William and Mary and each summer they sailed the Santee to Maine and Nova Scotia. The boat was built in 1977. We purchased the boat in 2002. Trevor asked that we not change the name of the boat for five years so we took some time looking for the perfect name. We read a book titled //Anam Cara// - a Book of Celtic Wisdom -by John O'Donohue, an irish poet and philosopher. We loved the message. [|Anam Cara at amazon] Anam Cara is the celtic words for 'soul friend'. We've got the book on board-ask us if you'd like to read it. It's wonderful! We have a pretty amazing story (with photos) to tell you about how we ended up with this particular boat, if you are interested don't hesitate to ask.
