Description: Bonito 22 Aquarius
Au Revoir is a beautifully built trailer sailer with great space for living aboard while out on adventures around Australia's beautiful lakes, rivers and coastal bays. The Bonito 22 is easily handled, fun to sail and is a proper, safe, self-righting little cruiser.

We're about to leave again in our family caravan to travel more of Australia. So we've decided to sell the boat as we're not going to be sailing again for a couple of years.

I've loved getting out into nature with family and friends and away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. We've enjoyed taking the kids out sailing, sleeping on the boat, having secluded beach picnics, fishing from the boat and cruising around the Hawkesbury River tributaries. The kitchen, bathroom, berth and large cockpit make it very comfortable aboard for the day, the weekend or longer.

Au Revoir has also been the best remote working office I ever used. The large hinged table was great to use to write my book and do work. All with the lap of the water, fresh air, no car noise and sunset/ sunrise that are beyond words.

The previous owner towed it up to the Whitsunday and lived aboard while sailing around the island. They even used it like a caravan, sleeping aboard while towing it up.

I've attached the spec sheets and reviews from when the boat was released. You could also google Bonito 22 and you'll quickly find trailer sailer forums recommending this boat over many other modern alternatives.

The highlights:
- Quality NZ Boat designed by boat builder Clive Jefferies, the Bonito 22 has a roomier layout, with the door at the head enclosing a toilet & sink, offering some rare privacy.
- It can sleep 4-5 people.
- The Swing keel helps you get in close to the beach for an easy swim, ice cream or explore ashore.
- Mercury 9.9HP outboard recently serviced & with low hours it's great for cruising.
- All gear is in in good condition including mainsail, jib, genoa, spinnaker and pole.
- 2 burner stove, solar charging, radio,

Currently moored at Cheero Point near Mooney Mooney on the Hawkesbury River. 1 hour from Sydney. A mooring transfer is possible with the sale.
