presumed that nothing would survive at sea if caught in the depression. Departure north for Papua New Guinea took Cythera to Gladstone and while anchored behind Heron Island, in more bad weather, raising the anchor created an accident for the crewman, Bob. Peter motored the ship 90 miles West, to Rockhampton for the crewman's hospital needs. The continuing journey, from Rockhampton, was crewed by the Fenton family, Peter, Pat and daughter Penelope. The Australian cyclone season was spent in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Cythera then headed for Durban, South Africa, via Christmas Island; Cocos Keeling; Mauritius and Réunion and was the first yacht of the season to arrive in Durban, South Africa in September 1967. They then departed for the Virgin Islands in mid January 1968, stopping in Port Elizabeth, East London, Mossel Bay and Cape Town, South Africa, continuing up the South Atlantic via Saint Helena, Ascension and Fernando de Noronha Islands, then sighting the waters of the Amazon and making landfall in the Caribbean in Antigua – thence to St. Thomas, where she dropped anchor before hurricane season in 1968. Cythera spent 20 years as home to Peter and Pat, while they made Marine Diesel Services their livelihood. Peter suffered a debilitating stroke in 1984, which virtually closed down his business and the ability to maintain his ship. Cythera was sold and the Fentons moved to Southwest Florida. Peter died on 22 February 2002. Patricia died 27 June 2021 in Birmingham, Alabama where she lived with her daughter. Fate Cythera's new owner fitted her out for charter guests and eventually took her to Venezuela for a total refit. After two years on the hard, Cythera's next voyage was headed to Trinidad in December 2003 (to meet Peter's wife who was on a cruise ship, visiting), but the weather again forced a change of course for the new captain, and he headed to Jamaica. A major breakdown in the steering system occurred. The new owner and crew stepped off onto a container ship, and Cythera was abandoned. After 10 days, she was located ashore on the Silver Shoals, southeast of Kingston, Jamaica. The steel masts were smashed almost in half, the booms were torn off the masts, and she had been rammed on the starboard side and the hull was damaged. It was 40 years to the month (March 2004), since the maiden voyage of the Cythera from
