Pacific crossing (Chile to French Polynesia) and inter islands visits

After Antarctica and the Patagonian canals, the next trip is to cross the Pacific Ocean and stay for several months in the French Polynesia; on the way we will visit the Juan Fernandez Is; (Robinson Crusoe), the Easter I. and possibly Pitcairn (weather depending).
Arrival at the Gambiers Is. before the end of April.
Then we will start visits on the spot: Gambiers, Society Is. (including Tahiti), Tuamotu and Marquises for a duration of 4,5 months.
Up to now, the crew is potentially completed for the crossing, but you can indicate your interest in case of a withdrawal.
For the inter islands cruising I am presently building an indicative time table (subject to); I will post it asap, but the idea is to have 1 or 2 competent crew on board all the time, based on the presence of each crew for 1 to 2 months.
At this stage I would like to receive expressions of interest from the candidates with an indication of the possible period for them.
Please take into account that your trip to/from the boat may include inter-island flights.
BalthazaR has a good reputation for a friendly ambiance on board with very good cooking.
The participation to the on-board costs is 30 €/day.

  • Boat descriptionThe vessel is an Exploration 45 built in 2014 at Garcia shipyard. She was built for Jimmy Cornell; she already went through the North-West passage and also from Svalbard to the limit of the Arctic ice pack up to 80° North. She is very comfortable, highly equipped in terms of security and communication. I took the boat back to Garcia shipyard for a partial refit (2019); we had then a huge sailing tour in North Europe and then down to Marseilles; afterwards, during the Covid period, the boat being very close to my home, I went through a very detailed preparation for a 5 years around the world cruise. At the end of 2022 she was fully ready for new adventures. NB: French and English usually spoken on board.
