Atlantin ylitys lännestä itään
Huhtikuu - toukokuu 2023

About Atlantic crossing west to east

We’ll start from Martinique on April 26th, setting course for the Azores. We’ll spend a few days exploring the islands, and then we’ll continue to Portugal.

When leaving Fort-de France, we have the option to sail either the traditional route, going north to round the Azores high pressure, or the alternative route going first east and later crossing the azores high. We estimate the trip to the Azores to take almost three weeks. We’ll spend around a week on the Azores, visiting some of the islands. Then on May 20th, we set sails towards Portugal, and we expect the trip to take around a week.

You are invited to join us as crew members, either for the full trip or parts thereof, taking responsibility for watchkeeping and assisting with sailing the yacht.
