Welcome Aboard!

Welcome to the journeys of Iron Lady.

The original IRON LADY, FPB 64 3 was launched in 2011.  During the 5 years we owned her, she put close to 25,000 nautical miles under her keel taking us to the the South Pacific Islands, a full circumnavigation of New Zealand, French Polynesia, Christmas Island, Palmyra, Hawaii and then to British Columbia.  We sadly sold her when we signed on for a new FPB 78.  Again Hull Number 3 and once again designed by Steve Dashew and built by Circa Marine in New Zealand.

The new IRON LADY was launched in December of 2017 and after Builder and Owner’s trials, she is off to see the world.  From New Zealand, we transited to French Polynesia and then onward to Costa Rica.  In October 2018, it was off to the Galapagos and then on to the Fiords of Chile and down to Puerto Williams.  In January, we were off to Antarctica with sister ship GREY WOLF and then north thru the Chilean Fiords to North America thru the Panama Canal.

Now she has been sold due to serious leg injuries from hip replacement surgery.  We will miss her greatly.

Welcome Aboard and Cheers
