Sailing with a Rally: ARC – Atlantic Rally for Cruisers

Crew roles: The ARC is a ‘must do’ for many sailors, and attracts over 200 boats and 1200 people every year to sail 2700 NM across the Atlantic from Gran Canaria to Saint Lucia. Starting as a safe way to cross the Atlantic in numbers, it has grown to become the biggest trans-ocean sailing event in the world. The ARC takes you transatlantic on the trade wind route intended to give optimum downwind sailing. A real bucket list journey, it is a unique experience – crossing the Atlantic enjoying day after day of the wind on the quarter, a long Atlantic swell, a few cumulus clouds and a setting sun on the bow. More than just a boat race, a vibrant social and shore activity programme in Las Palmas sets the scene for the tremendous camaraderie that characterises this event. Friendships made ashore in the two weeks of pre-departure activities continue over the radio net at sea, culminating in arriving in Saint Lucia to be met on the dock with a rum punch and a chilled beer, knowing you have achieved something fantastic – crossing an ocean on a small sailboat! This opportunity is open to crew with a variety of experience, previous night sailing experience is recommended.

Money: voyage cost $8000

Travel to and from boat: crew pays
