This experience, in a nutshell

We depart from Las Palmas on a journey that goes beyond simple navigation: a daring challenge across the Atlantic to Saint Martin. This crossing is an experience reserved for experienced sailors, combining advanced seafaring skills and a courage that embraces the unknown of the open ocean.


Every day at sea is a chapter of adventure, with the wind inflating our sails as we leave the Canary Islands behind. The nights are illuminated by starry skies, a constant reminder of the vastness of our environment and our determination to navigate the waves and stars.


The crew, united by their love for the sea and the experience accumulated over countless nautical miles, masterfully manage every aspect of the crossing. Every maneuver, every decision is guided by a deep knowledge of the ocean and an awareness of its unpredictability.


We cross the ocean currents, let ourselves be surprised by the dolphins playing in our wake and approach Saint Martin with the gratitude of those who have conquered an epic goal. The island welcomes us with its white sand beaches and vibrant Caribbean atmosphere, as we reflect on the grandeur of our trip.


It is an experience that will remain engraved in our memories as a test of courage and resilience, unique in its kind and destined to live on in the stories of the next generations of navigators.

Our itinerary

We depart from Las Palmas for a daring challenge across the Atlantic to Saint Martin. 2,900 miles of ocean in front of the bow await us.

The crossing consists mainly of two phases: the first is the one that leads us from the Canary Islands to look for the trade winds, the dominant winds that blow constantly from the northeast and the second, the one with the trade winds in the stern. By definition, the first phase is perhaps the most challenging, certainly the most unstable while then, once in the trade wind, you sail quickly towards the goal.

On the open sea, every day gives us breathtaking views and intense emotions as we face the ocean currents and enjoy the starry skies. We finally arrive in Saint Martin, grateful for the experience that has shaped our spirit and enriched our bond with the sea.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Beautiful and unforgettable experience. Places that need no introduction, fabulous and comfortable boat, Stefano excellent skipper, prepared, experienced, patient and wise. The aspect that will remain forever impressed on us, however, is the harmony between us and Stefano and Giulia, two nice, fun people, with whom it was very easy to get in tune right away and who made, more than anything else, the week truly unique. An experience that we recommend to everyone. A hug to Stefano and Giulia from your Russian friends! Andrea, Stefano, Matteo, Nicola and Nicolas. And see you soon for new adventures.
