High-altitude gulet cruise: Lisbon-Azores

Sailing by gulet from Lisbon to Punta Delgada (Azores). Medium-level crossing, it is necessary to have previously sailed, with guards and fatigue management.

As is customary in all navigations aboard this gulet, we will learn what a high-altitude voyage across the North Atlantic is. We will always navigate by estimate with the chart and the sextant calculating our observed and estimated position.

Meteorology workshop. Routing and analysis of isobaric maps, fronts and different models. Interpretation of the Météo in deep-sea navigation learning to read the sky and the sea.

Trimming of candles and presentation of various types of them. The gulet has many sailing possibilities and all of them with manual lifting and lowering. Just like presenting them to give them wind.

The guards are on the wheel, the autopilot is not used. Swedish guards in rotating pairs.

Get
to know ourselves and explore our behavior in the face of tiredness and outside the comfort zone.

Here you are always learning.
