I am the son of the penultimate owner (R.I.P.) of the Kalea, purchased in 1991 and resold to the current owner Mr. Tim Blackman in 2019. I had the honor of being in command of this wonderful sailing ship from 2004 to 2019, the year in which this masterpiece was sold by my family due to new needs that concerned our personal affairs. The yacht was a little low maintenance, but still sailed superbly. This is why Tim, trying it sailing in the Mediterranean, fell in love with it and moved it to the U.K. and brought it back to its former glory. Thank you Tim for taking on the baton of this wonderful story. I am deeply moved and I feel that dad is watching you with emotion and joy sailing from up there. The same emotion and pride that I feel, having saved this masterpiece from oblivion, handing it over to Tim who is still able to navigate and convey emotions. Thanks Tim, I love you and look forward to hugging you again.
