[ Cancelled ] Transatlantic Crossing. Portugal to St Lucia Portugal to Saint Lucia ref 14576
From Faro, Portugal to Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia.
January 2024 to April 2024.
Hello, I'm looking for crew mates to help me deliver my 13.5mtr blue water yacht to St Lucia in the Caribbean. After leaving the Portuguese coast we will possibly make land fall in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, before heading for Las Palmas. From there, there is the possibility of calling at the Cape Verde Islands or sailing directly to St Lucia. I will pay on board expenses. Food, fuel and any marina fees. Departure / Arrival dates are of course subject to safe weather forcast and sailing practices. This opportunity is flexible in that crew members may wish to do the whole or part of the voyage. I have listed a separate opportunity from Faro to the Canary Islands. Preference for the transatlantic crossing will be given to crew who started the voyage in Faro.
