Pacific crossing from Marquesas Islands to Hawaï

During 2026 BalthazaR (Exploration 45 - Garcia) is going to sail from the French Polynesia to Canada.
This advert deals with the first part of the trip from Hiva Oa (early April 2026 -Marquesas Islands) to Honolulu (end of May 2026 - Hawaï).
We will have the opportunity to visit the Marquesas Islands and the South Hawaiian archipelago. In between we will have an intertropical crossing for about 3,5 weeks.
BalthazaR has the reputation of a very good ambiance on board and is well known for it's good cooking.
I am looking for a competent crew having at minimum sailed for 5 000 NM with high sea experience; the crew must be able to keep the night watches alone and to participate to the full life of the board: all maneuvers, cooking, cleaning, little maintenance .
I am looking for non-smoking and reasonable drinking crew.
The participation to the cruising expenses is 25€ per day.

  • Boat descriptionThe vessel is an Exploration 45 built in 2014 at Garcia shipyard. She was built for Jimmy Cornell; she already went through the North-West passage and also from Svalbard to the limit of the Arctic ice pack up to 80° North. She sailed to Antarctica and the Patagonian canals in 2024. In 2025 we crossed the South Pacific and visited the French Polynésia. 2026 will be dedicated to a long crossing from the Marquesas Islands to Canada with a call at Hawaii. She is very comfortable, highly equipped in terms of security and communication. I took the boat back to Garcia shipyard for a partial refit (2019); we had then a huge sailing tour in North Europe and then down to Marseilles; afterwards, during the Covid period, the boat being very close to my home, I went through a very detailed preparation for a 5 years around the world cruise. At the end of 2022 she was fully ready for new adventures. Balthazar is constantly kept at the highest level of safety and efficiency. NB: French and English usually spoken on board.
