[ active ] Atlantic Crossing – Transatlantic W to E Guadeloupe to France ref 12586

CHALLENGE OCEAN wants 2 crew for ALBATROS, CHALLENGE 67, 20m.

From POINTE A PITRE, Guadeloupe to LORIENT, France.

April 2024 to May 2024.

Albatros is one of our crewed Challenge 67*, part of our French Sailing School. Back from the ARC 2023, we propose to cross the Atlantic from West to East as a crew member. Crossing is about 3500 NM, with stop over in Horta in the Azores. Even though it has become more popular in recent years, embarking to cross the Atlantic requires commitment. Eventually, you will have to endure bad weather, hot at the beginning, cold afterwards… You must therefore be psychologically ready to participate and experience offshore sailing. More details on https://www.challengeocean.com/en/navigation/atlantic-crossing-west-indies-to-brittany-2/ * Challenge 67 have been designed and built for the ex BT Global Challenge, around the world yacht race against prevailing winds.

CHALLENGE OCEAN is currently based in France
