[ active ] Rio to Cape Town Brazil to South Africa ref 15956

wants 2 crew for Bluebird, Privilege 5 Series, m.

From Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to Cape Town, South Africa.

November 2026 to December 2026.

A long trip! 3400 miles as the crow flies, but it will be further as we have to sail south first to get the wind, about 4000 miles in total, so perhaps 30 to 35 days. We may call at Tristan da Cunha if the wind is favourable but will not be a long stop. Dates include a buffer each end for provisioning, familiarisation and unexpected delays. As with any trip like this, dates cannot be set in stone

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 1): Watch-leader

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 2): Watch-leader

Sailing with a Rally: Independent

I'm looking for (gender): either

Cabins/Sleeping : own cabin-own bunk

Smoking on board: non-smokers only

Total people on board: 4

Crew roles: I am looking for experienced crew who know they will enjoy the trip. Otherwise fit, healthy, unrestricted diet, no smoking or drinking while at sea. A positive attitude to cooking, cleaning and mending stuff will be important. A few good stories wouldn't hurt. You will pay your share of groceries and meals ashore plus the green fees and club rental at Tristan if applicable.

Money: expenses shared equally

Travel to and from boat: crew pays
