Description

Looking for 4 people to join us in November on a sailing adventure from Tenerife to The Azores, then to Cascais, Portugal and back to Tenerife. The trip will take approximately 3 weeks and the 3 legs are each c.700nm long. (Individual legs may be available to sail if your time is short). You will be involved in all aspects of preparation and sailing, from cooking and navigation to standing night watches and in-depth weather analysis, so this is a great way to prepare for your own boat journey or get some high level tuition while building your ocean miles. Since I will teach astral navigation en route, these 3 passages can be qualifiers for any aspiring RYA Yachtmaster Ocean candidates. And aside from all that, it promises to be an epic and fun sail. The Azores are well known as one of the best whale spotting territories in Europe, and Cascais is such a vibrant town on the outskirts of Lisbon.
