Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Sailing community with children promoting nature conservation and producing film content.
We are currently in Mexico and will soon sail via Cuba and Barbados to the Amazon in Brazil.
This is NOT your regular cruise!
We are a community vessel for Earth lovers with several children aboard (baby and teens) and we promote conservation related projects and create film content. (participants need to be ok to be filmed).
Everyone aboard is treated as crew and family and is expected to do their fair share of cooking, cleaning, upkeep maintenance, steering and sail handling. These tasks are not considered 'work' but rather are an integral part of the lifestyle.
Short term participants are required to cover their cost for (vegan) food, fuel and other expenses at 50 Euro per day. We offer work trade opportunities for skilled and motivated crew members that contribute long term and are productive. Areas we need help with are project management, marketing, social media, filming, directing, editing, teaching, child care, housekeeping, ship related works and cooking. Please contact us to discuss your options.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

The yacht is a 120 ft Ketch equipped for world-wide cruising. We have sailed to all continents and countless islands in between with an average of 16 people including our children.

The living quarters are comfortable while simple private single or double cabins. Communal spaces include a spacious saloon and galley, library, workshop and lots of deck space. We share shower and toilet. For shore runs and excursions we enjoy our large panga, a sailing dinghy and dive gear.

What is expected of the crew

The boat is a community. We depend on each other for safety and for fun. Everyone is required to participate with cooking, cleaning, maintenance, watch-keeping, raising sails and more. We will offer training in all areas so that you will feel confident. Food is mostly vegan! Strictly no fish and no meat!
Be aware that communal life together requires a high level of energy.
We value teamwork, open communication, family vibe, sense of humour and a positive attitude.
