Peter Adams wants 2 crew for Flying Fish, Robertson & Caine Leopard 44 Sailing Catamaran From Gibraltar to Las Palmas, Gran Canaria. Mid October (around the 19th) 2024 to October 30,2024.

This is an opportunity to join my wife and me on SV Flying Fish on passage to the Canary Islands from Gibraltar via Madeira. Our passage will be taking us to the Canary Islands, the jumping off point for the trans-Atlantic ARC’24 rally to the Caribbean. We are on a very seaworthy 2011 Leopard 44 catamaran with four cabins and private heads that we have been sailing as live-aboards in the Med for the past two years. We have all new standing and running rigging as well as a new set of sails including genoa, main and Oxley Parasailor. TIMESCALE. This timescale allows for weather anomalies and shakedown cruising. All timescales are subject to weather conditions. We need to arrive in Las Palmas by November 11th, so we're starting out around October 19th and, with perfect weather, we would arrive early. SMOKING. No smoking or vaping onboard whatsoever. ALCOHOL. No alcohol consumed throughout the sailing and only at the skipper's discretion at the Canary Islands. GEAR. Bring your own necessary sailing gear, lifejacket with harness (or borrow one of ours), and offshore PLB with AIS and Olas overboard alert. Flying Fish has a brand new ISO six person offshore liferaft with flares and grab bag. Crew will also provide their own foul weather clothing. FOOD. There may be a mixed diet onboard and we will shop together to make sure everyone’s dietary needs are met. Crew will be expected to take turns to cook and share all washing up and cleaning duties. Breakfast will be self serve. SHAKEDOWN CRUISE. At least one day sail afloat in advance of departure is mandatory. Plus the skipper will require an online WhatsApp video call as a way of meeting in advance of departure.
