[ Cancelled ] World ARC Leg 7 Fiji, Vanuatu, Australia Fiji to Australia ref 1590
Dan Bower wants 2 crew for Skyelark of London, Skye 51, 16m.
From Port Denerau, Fiji to Mackay, Australia.
July 2017 to July 2017.
Leg 7: Fiji, Vanuatu, Mackay (1700nm) After joining at Port Denerau we will sail to Musket Cove to rendezvous with the other WARC yachts for a couple of social events before heading off for Vanuatu. This 450 mile passage should take 3 days and then allow 10 days of cruising through the islands before joining up again with the others on the 19th. Our first stop on Tanna will be a memorable experience. Sitting next to a live volcano as it rumbles and spits molten lava rocks into the air is not something you forget in a hurry! Sailing up through the islands we will visit many isolated communities, and the locals are happy to welcome yachts and trade for locally grown fruit and veg. There are also opportunities for island tours and great diving and snorkelling over old World War II sites on the islands of Santo. Our passage onto Australia should be a 7 day tradewind sail across to Mackay, the gateway to the well known Whitsunday Islands. Skyelark is fully coded to cat 0 regulations (unrestricted). This will be her second circumnavigation with her owners Dan and Em, both highly experienced ocean yachtmasters. £3500 per person. Please see http://skye51.com or email us for more information.
