Nine days. 1,000+ miles. One unforgettable Gulf crossing. 🌊
SV Invictus, a Beneteau Oceanis 40.1, was part of the SailTime Houston fleet, giving members the opportunity to explore Galveston Bay and beyond. But eventually, Invictus’ owner decided it was time for a new chapter—and a bigger adventure.
That adventure began with a journey from Texas to Florida.
Third Coast Yacht Sales owner Evan Macaluso, along with an experienced crew, took Invictus offshore and traversed the Gulf to her new home in Daytona Beach, Florida. The nine-day passage was more than simply moving a boat from one coast to another. It was the kind of sailing adventure that reminds you why owning a sailboat is about so much more than the boat itself.
There were nights spent stargazing under wide-open skies, wildlife sightings along the way, offshore fishing, long days on the water, and plenty of laughs shared around the cockpit table. The Gulf provided a little bit of everything—and Invictus provided the perfect platform for the journey.
This is what owning your own sailboat can make possible.
You choose where you want to go. You decide when it’s time to cast off. And sometimes, the next adventure is hundreds of miles away.
The journey of SV Invictus is a great example of where a capable cruising sailboat can take you—and Third Coast Yacht Sales can help you find the boat to start your own story.
