? About us
After years of preparation, we left La Rochelle in August last year to begin our family sailing adventure and have already logged 6000 nautical miles together.
We enjoy simple life at sea: sailing, discovering remote islands and meeting people along the way.
________________________________________
? What we offer
• Private double cabin
• Friendly and respectful atmosphere
• A real Pacific ocean crossing experience
________________________________________
⚓ What we’re looking for
Someone easygoing, reliable and happy to share family life on board.
You'll help with:
• Being happy to speak English on board so the kids (and Nico!) can improve their English
• Watch keeping during the crossing (we will share a simple watch system so everyone can rest and enjoy the passage)
• Cooking and daily life on board
• Interacting with the kids
Bonus points if you enjoy board games, sunsets, simple meals, and the occasional chaotic family moment!
Some offshore sailing experience is appreciated, but good attitude and reliability are the most important. As this is a long ocean passage, we are looking for someone who is comfortable at sea and does not suffer from seasickness.
Please note this is a real offshore passage, not a cruise, so everyone participates in watches and daily life on board.
