Passage from Galapagos to Marquesas
Our plan is to take on crew on March 10th spend some time to get to know each other and the boat while we explore Galapagos. When we get a good weather window we et sail for Marquesas where we spend the rest of the time until April 21st.
It may be possible to extend your position for further sailing in French Polynesia. Our plans are to sail westwards to Tonga and make passage to New Zealand in October.
Our crew contribute 50USD per person per day, which covers their share of food, fuel, cruising fees and some of the maintenance.
Background story:
We are a couple sailing around the world. We started out from the Canary Islands in November 2023, and expect to return to Europe in 2028 after a full circumnavigation.
While we are capable of sailing by our own, we would like to share the adventure. We take on up to 6 crew members at a time. Crew does not necessarily need prior sailing experience. Crew will be assigned tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, shopping, watch keeping and maintenance.
Itiniary (overview):
2024 - Caribbean and Latin Amerika
2025 - Pacific Ocean and New Zealand
2026 - New Zealand, Pacific Ocean and Asia
2027 - Asia and Africa
2028 - Caribbean and Europe
Learned a lot and had a great time!
I can’t recommend sailing with Tom and Jane enough! Tom was very knowledgeable and really helped me learn the basics of sailing. In addition, Jane was a great cook and the conversations at dinner were wonderful! Thank you to you both :)
