Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello fellow sailors! We're sailing in Haida Gwaii during May 2023 , returning to Vancouver along the West coast of VanIsle in the first part of June. We have the core crew, but can take 1-2 more reliable sailors along the route. Reach out if you're interested and have some sailing cruising/racing experience.
Fair winds,

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleanvery safeshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamlive off the gridmulticultural

Our schooner is an offshore French designed steel hull yacht that sails fast and is stable in high seas. She always gets a lot of attention in anchorages and marinas. All vital systems were recently inspected and brought to good working condition. Electrical systems were updated and upgraded. New and updated sail inventory.
We are heading out on a long term cruise around Pacific with Haida Gwaii visit in May, then San Fran in September, then Baja California for the winter, and down to Galapagos and French Polynesia on the way to NZ and AU in 2024.
