We have started sailing when we were teenagers, on beautiful unspoiled inland waters of Polish Mazurian Lakes. Later on, being more and more curious about the world, we have started to charter different boats in different locations around the globe and have set our dream to have our own boat and explore the world. We found that owning a sailing yacht is the only way to experience real freedom. Now it's like spinning the globe while having your eyes closed and then pointing random place in the world in order to visit this place with a yacht. Since 2007 we have started to shape our distant dreams visiting shipyards and taking part in boat shows around Europe. We were also checking different yacht manufacturers and brands looking for features such as seaworthiness, safety, sleek design, and of course, a bit of luxury keeping in mind, that someday, we would like to live on a boat as if it was our second home. Yachts like: Discovery, Hallberg-Rassy, Southerly, Delphia, Najad, Dufour, were carefully considered and examined by us during our visits. They all looked interesting and met most of our criteria.

Then we found Her!

She was outstandingly looking, had this mysterious spirit. She has the perfect balance of the blue haul composed with state of the art unique shape side windows, like a dolphin eye. Looking at her, we could admire sensuality, dignity, and elegance a specially when dressed in perfectly, well-cut snow-white sails.

Our choice fell on a yacht designed by Rob Humphrey and well made by Oyster Marine – Oyster 46.

The final decision was made unanimously, without doubts, right after the first sailing trial in August 2008.

Since then our real adventure began. We set ourselves an ambitious goal for us (ambitious that time) but adequate for Her, namely, Atlantic Ocean crossing, which we successfully did in November 2009, by joining the ARC (Atlantic Rally for Cruisers).

We named her SUNsuSEA – name-based not only on a French sentence - Sans Souci, that means without worry or carefree but also it is named just like Frederick the Great, King of Prussia named his passion to art and harmony, by building his life asylum, summer residence in Potsdam near Berlin. We named it also after my wife’s and my passion for sun and sea.

To make it easier to read and understand for those who are more fluent in English than in French the name was transformed to SUNsuSEA.Since then we’ve acquired much more sailing and technical knowledge and experience, leaving over  40 000 Nm behind us. However, we are still learning every day at sea and still have great respect for it and for the power of nature. We are aware of human limits as well as our possible lack of knowledge of sailing skills.
