Description
A nice introduction to Ocean Sailing with a short passage Faro-Madeira-Faro.. The trade winds will be playing on our favour in the 1st leg.
This 1200NM Ocean passage should take 4 days Faro-Funchal + 3 days break in Madeira + 5-6 days sail back against the trade winds. In total 12-14 days passage.
We also include 1 or 2 day for weather delay.
If the passage is super fast we will have the chance to landfall in Porto Santo to explore ashore before our final destination - Funchal.
Once in Funchal we will have 1 or 2 days to explore the island do some hiking and explore the "Levadas" before heading back to Portugal mainland. Sailing back against the trade winds will be challenging but also fun.
Last bunk available.
Qualifying YM Offshore passage.
