Description

Dark Horse a 2017 Beneteau Oceanis 45 from Beneteau is a spacious and fantastic Sailing boat set up for offshore passage making. With 4 cabins it has the ability to carry 6-8 sailors with all provisions for 10-15 days. This makes it a good choice for this adventure. We will set sail from Marina San Miguel in San Miguel de Abona for a great sailing passage to the Azores, on to Cascais and then return to the Canaries

Additional details

I'm 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. I have been skippering leadership programmes for a professional coaching group in corporate and university programs for the last 5 years and will pass on the leadership skills I have learned in this program.
