Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Sailing from the Caribbean to the Pacific – Join an Ocean Adventure aboard this yacht.
We are sailing from the Caribbean to the Pacific aboard this yacht, a beautifully equipped 47-foot Jeanneau Sun Odyssey. Our journey takes us through Colombia, the Panama Canal, and ultimately to Guaymas, Mexico.
The yacht is a safe and proven bluewater sailboat, fitted with Raymarine navigation electronics, AIS, solar panels, and comfortable accommodations. She also carries a solid dinghy with outboard and all the necessary offshore safety gear.
We are currently two crew members onboard (myself – Abraham, Mexican adventurer and experienced sailor – and Faris, the owner and skipper). We’re looking to invite one or two open-minded, reliable crew members to share part of the journey, assist with watches, learn about passage-making, and enjoy life at sea.
You don’t need to be an expert sailor, but some experience is appreciated. Enthusiasm, good vibes, and teamwork matter most. This is not a luxury cruise — it’s an adventurous, hands-on sailing trip.
Food is shared, expenses are light, and the memories will be priceless.
