Sailing Round the World wants 1 crew for S/Y Celeste of Solent, Farr65r, m.
From Cowes, United Kingdom to Ponta Delgada, Portugal.
August 2025 to August 2025.
This leg combines bluewater sailing with exploring two of the most unique archipelagos in Europe. The Isles of Scilly lies just off the coast of Cornwall but are a world apart in every way. A natural wonder, like a cluster of precious ocean jewels, where nature thrives and the soul is inspired.After a pleasant stop to explore, we will make final preparations for offshore sailing and set course for the Azores, approximately 1,200 nautical miles to the southwest. The crossing will take 6–8 days, providing an excellent opportunity to experience true offshore sailing in the Atlantic.

Crew roles: As a crew member on board Celeste of Solent, you become part of the team and are involved in everything from steering and navigating to cooking and cleaning. We sail in watch teams where you are on watch for three hours and off watch for six hours. You will develop as a sailor and learn off-shore sailing, navigation and route planning. We do not require prior experience from off-shore sailing, though experience from sailing is preferable. Usually the crew have different level of knowledge and experience and we mix the watch team accordingly. Our skipper and first mate are always at hand to guide and help. We are a total 12-14 crew members on board, including permanent crew. There are no private cabins on Celeste. Under way, it is most comfortable to sleep in the aft because the boat moves the least there. Therefore, we alternate between the berths in the aft when we sail. Cost of food is not included in price and is shared among the crew. As a crew member, you’ll participate according to your ability in all activities on board.
Money: voyage cost $2560
Travel to and from boat: crew pays
