Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Amazing sailboat, amazing crew, amazing adventure.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortableluxuriousvery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spacioushave a holidayshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamface challenges

I have sailed at least 25,000 nm on the yacht. 4 seasons in the Mediterranean, crossed the Atlantic in 2019 right before COVID. The boat was stationed in the Mexican Caribbean until last November when we began the journey to cross through the Panama Canal and sail north in the pacific and sail up to Baja, La Paz and Loreto specifically.

After 4,000 nautical miles and three months at sea we arrived in Loreto on Jan 30, 2024 where the boat has a new temporary home. I plan on sailing the Baja area for at least another year, there are so many magical places to visit. The aquarium of the world said Jacques Cousteau.

As with all things sailing the next mega adventure is on the works. We are planning on crossing the pacific to the marquesas in march 2025. And then potentially circumnavigating

We would like to get to know the crew before we embark in such a journey. So we are inviting people to come sail in Baja during 2024. I am planning on sailing a lot in Baja so there are plenty of opportunities to come for 2-4 weeks, if we enjoy those days we can discuss the Pacific adventure.

What is expected of the crew

You are expected to have a super positive attitude and take on the challenges we face sailing, cleaning or cooking, fixing things. I cannot emphasize this more, sailing is fun and chill, but it also requires hard work.
