This 29-day transpacific sailing expedition covers approximately 3,000 nautical miles from the Galápagos Islands to the Marquesas, making it one of the great bluewater passages of the world.

Departing the volcanic shores of the Galápagos, the voyage heads west into the vast Pacific Ocean, leaving land far behind as the crew settles into the rhythm of long-distance ocean sailing. For weeks, life revolves around watchkeeping, sail handling, navigation, weather systems and the daily routines of offshore passage-making while crossing one of the most remote stretches of ocean on Earth.

This is a genuine transpacific adventure, offering the rare opportunity to experience the scale, solitude and beauty of the world’s largest ocean. Days at sea are shaped by trade winds, changing skies, ocean wildlife and the rewarding simplicity of life under sail. As the miles pass beneath the keel, crew gain practical offshore experience while becoming fully immersed in the realities of long-distance ocean voyaging.

After nearly a month at sea, the dramatic volcanic peaks of the Marquesas rise from the horizon, marking a memorable landfall in one of the most remote island groups in French Polynesia.

Guests become active members of the crew throughout the voyage, participating in watchkeeping, navigation, sail handling, meal preparation and daily vessel operations while building confidence through real offshore sailing experience.

Your expedition takes place aboard a 72ft steel sailing vessel originally built for one of the world’s most demanding around-the-world yacht races. Designed for extended ocean passages and remote exploration, the vessel is certified for unrestricted ocean voyaging and combines expedition capability with a comfortable onboard environment. With space for just 10 guest crew, voyages are immersive and hands-on, with everyone encouraged to participate in sailing operations, watchkeeping and daily life at sea.
