Sailing and cruising in French Polynesia
We will sail westwards from Marquesas to Tonga in the period from May 2025 to September 2025. You are welcome to join us as crew for a period of minimum 2 weeks. We expect to stay at beatiful anchorages and do some shorter passages between the Islands.
You may also be interested in our passage from Tonga to New Zealand in October 2025.
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 :)
