Historical Background
THIS CLASSIC HISTORIC BOAT IS THE RESULT OF A DESIGNS THAT HEIN GARBERS CREATED AS HE CROSSED THE ATLANTIC OCEAN IN HIS SAILBOAT DURING WORLD WAR II. UNDER CONTRACT WITH THE GERMAN NAVY, HEIN GARBERS, WITH A DANISH PASSPORT AND A DANISH FLAG ON HIS SAILBOAT, FERRIED GERMAN SPIES ACROSS THE ATLANTIC TO ARGENTINA AND TO SOUTH AFRICA. AFTER THE WAR HE CAME UP WITH HIS "IDEAL DESIGN" FOR A COMFORTABLE OCEAN GOING SAILBOAT. TAKING ADVANTAGE OF TONS OF WRAUGHT IRON SHEET ABANDONED IN YARDS THAT BUILT U-BOATS, HE BUILT 9 SAILBOATS. THIS IS HULL #3 LAUNCHED IN HAMBURG, GERMANY IN 1951 AND NAMED HER JANNE. A SECONF OWNER RENAMED THE BOAT ETMAL, WHICH MEANS 'COURSE' IN SWEDISH. LATER, PETER ADALBERG BOUGHT THE BOAT, RENAMED IT BONIFAZ III, AND SET SAIL FOR SOUTH AFRICA. ON THEIR RETURN VOYAGE LIFE AT SEA HAD LOST ITS CHARM AND WHILE PASSING THROUGH VNEZUELA IN 1976 SOLD IT TO FRED SCHUBERT WHO RENAMED IT TERESA. BOATLESS AFTER MY SHIPWRECK DURING 2000 IN NOVA SCOTIA, I BOUGHT THE BOAT IN MARCH 2001 AND SAILED IT TO SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, WHERE IT NOW LIES. NOT TO GO AGAINST TRADITION, I RENAMED IT PALLAS. SOON TO BE 80 YEARS OF AGE AND WITH MANY FRIENDS INSISTING I SAIL WITH THEM, I HAVE OPTED TO SELL MY BOAT.
