Sailing around the world

What started as a sailing adventure among 3 close friends turned into the beginning of a love story.

We are Dennis and Jannell, brought together by adventure and curiosity. Dennis left The Netherlands in 2022 with close friends Job and Nick. After a year of sailing together, Job and Nick decided to return to land-life which left Dennis who was not interested in doing the same yet cruising the Caribbean with new crew. As fate would have it (with a little help from Tinder), he would cross paths with Jannell, a curious Saint Lucian. In getting to know each other we decided to make our life together a great adventure, starting onboard the Satisfaction. And so as one chapter ended, a new one unfolded.


Our Journey

Our trip starts on the 1st of June 2022. The plan is to throw a farewell party in Grou and to leave the Netherlands through Terschelling.

We will slowly go down towards Portugal to then go to the Canary Islands. There we will stay a few weeks to then sail further to the Cape Verdean Islands.

From those islands, we will cross the Atlantic Ocean towards the Caribbean .

In this region, we will stay a few months and we will see from there how the rest of our trip will go


Our Boat

We will leave with a Doug Peterson 51, a “one of” sailor. The ship is built in England at the shipyard “Green Marine”.

The ship is built of a Kevlar composite, that’s why it is really light and at the same time very strong.

In short, it is a real sailboat and that is something that suits us. From the first sight of the ship, we all three fell in love with it.

We named the boat satisfaction because that name fits well with our travel plans and because it is of course a great song by the Rolling Stones.


About us

We are Job Modderman, Nick Zondervan and Dennis Meter. Three good friends who know each other mainly from competitive sailing. At first, we mainly competed against each other in the national competition, but in recent seasons we have been forming a team more and more on larger competitive boats.

We have now racked up quite a few miles together and can rely on each other 100% at all times, something which is of course extremely important when sailing at sea.

Alliouagana is the island’s indigenous name as given by the Kalinago which meant, “Land of Prickly Bush”. The Amerindians (peoples indigenous to the Caribbean islands Kalinagos, Arawaks, Tainos) named several of the islands by what they deemed it to be abundant in; what a clever way to distinguish the islands. Yes, Montserrat does have a lot of prickly bush! 

The island has an interesting story with the Soufrière Hills volcanoes coming immediately to mind first. 

It is worth the visit, we wish we could have stayed at least another day.

  • The Best Memories! 

On 5th June, 2022 we left from Terschelling for Denmark and onwards. We crossed oceans, saw new countries and did lots of new things. On 26th April, 2023 our journey together ended but Job and Nick made it possible for me to continue “on my own”. We have since made some new memories together and apart but I’m forever grateful for the ones we made together on Satisfaction!

One year of Independence! 🫣🤣🤣

  • 2 months ago the Satisfaction was getting ready to participate in the 44th SXM Heineken Regatta - a dream of mine and that of former owner (also Dennis @dbezemer1967 ). We had a fantastic and surreal week! It feels so long ago but it went by too quickly.

What a beautiful and welcoming island. There’s an old-time, quintessential, small island charm. Despite the occasional rolling, we loved it. Definitely hoping to visit again. 

FYI:
• US dollars are widely accepted
• everyone speaks English despite the island being Dutch 
• as small as the island is (3,100 people) there is a diverse expat community 
• there is one must-do hike to The Quill (Mount Mazinga). Our crew hiked to it but we’ll manage to on our next visit

  • Number of times we’ve done this hike? Dennis: 2, Jannell:1
How many times would we recommend it? Countless!

‼️ it can be challenging if you’re afraid of heights but we both are and were able to manage

  • With a “one-off” such as our 51-foot home we thought you might like to know some of her pretty cool and unique features. 

Some interesting facts that we also frequently answer:
- we have an island in the galley 🏝️
- she was built in 1986 (longer than we both have been alive 😅👶🏼👶🏾)
- she was designed by Doug Peterson
- she was built for racing 🏎️⛵️
- there are no others like her, design-wise. It feels special to own this fantastic sailing beauty which is unique and custom. 

What unique or cool features do you have on your boat? Do you prefer one-off, custom or factory built boats? 🤔

Alliouagana is the island’s indigenous name as given by the Kalinago which meant, “Land of Prickly Bush”. The Amerindians (peoples indigenous to the Caribbean islands Kalinagos, Arawaks, Tainos) named several of the islands by what they deemed it to be abundant in; what a clever way to distinguish the islands. Yes, Montserrat does have a lot of prickly bush! 

The island has an interesting story with the Soufrière Hills volcanoes coming immediately to mind first.

Countless! ‼️ it can be challenging if you’re afraid of heights but we both are and were able to manage . . . . . #sailing #sailingsatisfaction #hiking #travel #thingstodo #nature #naturelovers #outdoors #activity #stbarths #stbarth #explore #explorepage #exploremore

With a “one-off” such as our 51-foot home we thought you might like to know some of her pretty cool and unique features. Some interesting facts that we also frequently answer: - we have an island in the galley 🏝️ - she was built in 1986 (longer than we both have been alive 😅👶🏼👶🏾) - she was designed by Doug Peterson - she was built for racing 🏎️⛵️ - there are no others like her, design-wise. It feels special to own this fantastic sailing beauty which is unique and custom. What unique or cool features do you have on your boat? Do you prefer one-off, custom or factory built boats? 🤔 #sailing #sailingsatisfaction #unique #boatstuff #boatlife #sailinglife #explore #explorepage #customboat #custom #custombuild #custombuilt #boat #raceboat #paris2024sailing
