Kraken Travel wants 8 crew for Kraken (ex-Telefonica Black), Volvo Open 70 (gen 2), m.
From Gibraltar, Gibraltar to Las Palmas, Spain.
November 2019 to November 2019.
Experience the thrill of sailing on a high-performance Volvo Open 70 in the Atlantic Ocean while honing your skills and building your miles. These trips are for everyone, whether you are a novice or experienced sailor. You can get involved as much as you like, or you can sit back, enjoy the mid-Atlantic sail. Over the 5 days, you will have the opportunity to helm, trim, practice evolutions, passage plan, weather route and if you are a budding yacht master you can have the opportunity to skipper under the watchful eye of a Yachtmaster instructor. Best of all you’ll get at least 700nm in your logbook. Trip cost: £650

Crew roles: Don’t think this will be a luxury ride! Such a high-performance racing yacht does not come with many creature comforts. Cramped quarters, freeze-dried food and basic accommodation are the trade-off for a fast boat, many miles and the most exhilarating ride. We do it just as the elite ocean racers do so you truly get a genuine experience.
Money: voyage cost $800
Travel to and from boat: crew pays
