Do you want to have a unique sailing experience in the company of your friends or your family? Come to sail with us in an old pirate boat style from 70's.
We have 5 spots available to do the Atlantic crossing from West to East. One of the big challenges for sailing lovers.
This trip is for people who want to get more sailing experience and have the dream to cross an ocean.
The boarding place will be in Martinique where we will make the main provisioning for the crossing (20 to 45 days food). We will keep sailing in the Caribbean Island for 10 days to make everybody knows the boat and do some sailing lessons. We can talk with all the crew together to decide where to go and make the last stop in St. Marteen for the last provisioning and wait the good weather for the crossing to Azores.

Other information
All crew members are welcome, even if they do not know the language spoken on board (english)
The costs for the crossing including the 10 days sailing lessons in the Caribbean Island plus the crossing to azores that can take 20 to 40 days (the worse case) will be 1.500 € per person. This is included all the time in boat until we arrive in azores and also the diesel and marina/customs fees. Also helps with broken things and maintenance of the boat. Each crew member pays for his own visa if it's necessary and we share with all the crew the food.
A minimum of 2 registered crew members is necessary to make the trip.
Now a bit about us. We are a family that loves the nature and knowing different places. Gui started 8 years ago a project for the preservation of the Seas. The idea is to follow all the coast of the world using means of transport that does not pollute to get awareness for the pollution in our Oceans. The first 4 years were being done by bicycle and the focus was to talk with at least 10 people per day. Then start doing presentations in general for adults but too many excuses and always pointing the problem to the others. So we change a bit and start doing the presentations in schools for the children that are the future of our world. Cycling more than 30.000 km and 25 countries visited in South and Central America and in Europe. In this period I met my partner in life Tini. An amazing woman that is now the mother of my son Cairi. We saw each other in one year. We met again just 1 year later and finally 1 more year pass and we are together since than. The last 4 years was done sailing with a Beneteau First 38 ft that I bought in Trinidad. Did all the necessary repairs and sail solo to Columbia where I met Tini and my family. After sailing to Panama Jamaica Cuba Haiti Dominican Republic doing the North Atlantic circle crossing to Azores Madeira Canaries Cabe Verde and crossing back to Trinidad and Tobago with more 20.000 nautical miles.
In Trinidad and Tobago happened so many things for us. We arrive just to do some fixes in the boat and go to the Pacific but we didn't know our baby was coming inside mother's belly in the Atlantic crossing. When we realize Cairi was coming we decide to buy a bigger boat that we could work with and stay together with our son. So now after all this crazy covid times and 2 years working in the new old pirate style boat we are getting ready for the same north Atlantic circle navagation with a different boat.
The boat is a Hudson Force built in Taiwan from 1974. An old pirate boat style in fiberglass with the interior in wood that is being completed restore in the last 2 years.
