[ active ] ARC Atlantic 2024 – 16th Atlantic crossing with Salamander – Canary Islands to Saint Lucia Canary Islands to Saint Lucia ref 14585

Christopher White wants 6 crew for Salamander, Nauticat 521, 18m.

From Las Palmas, Canary Islands to Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia.

November 2024 to December 2024.

Sailing across an ocean is sometimes described as the opportunity of a lifetime ... a bucket list event. We have already sailed round the world on board Salamander and this will be our 16th Atlantic crossing, 9th with the ARC, where we are a regular and well known participant with ARC 2017, ARC 2018, ARC 2019, ARC 2021, ARC 2022, ARC 2023 and ARC Europe 2019, ARC Europe 2022, winning 1st in Class 2021 and the ARCH MAREZ TROPHY in 2023. Available for charter in the Caribbean, during the winter, and the UK in the summer Salamander consistently receives great reviews. “Their welcome was warm and genuine and we felt they really cared about giving us a great experience.” “We were looked after impeccably from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble.” “Would thoroughly recommend the hospitality offered by this lovely couple”. Salamander has been featured in Yachting World, UK TV and various international publications. We now look forward to sharing our next adventure with you. Salamander is probably the most comfortable yacht in the Racing Division offering traditional Sparkman & Stephens teak lined accommodation for a fun race across the Atlantic. There will be no hot bunking on this passage! Everyone has their own berth. You will have the satisfaction of sailing across the Atlantic without the use of the engine, as the racing rules stipulate. This is a great mile building opportunity for anyone looking to progress their sailing or for anyone who is thinking about a round the world adventure in their own yacht. Sextant available for those wishing to take sights for Yachtmaster Ocean Theory. There will be ample time to ask as many questions as you like. #GetInTouch2GetOnBoard
