5000nm Brazil > UK On an EPIC sailing boat...!

Join an unforgettable offshore sailing adventure ?⛵
This is a rare chance to sail a fast, ocean-proven 52’ performance yacht across the Atlantic with an experienced professional skipper — a proper bluewater passage for those craving real adventure.
We have 3–4 crew spaces available, on a shared contribution-to-cost basis, for an epic journey from Belém, Brazil ??, via the British Virgin Islands ??, all the way to the UK ??.
The boat
Sababa is a 52’ Bruce Farr IMS50, built for speed and serious offshore sailing — a powerful, exciting yacht that rewards teamwork and curiosity.
Rough plan (with ocean flexibility)
• Belém departure: mid-February (please arrive before 14 Feb)
• BVI departure: mid-March
• UK arrival: mid-April
Life onboard is vegetarian, drink- and drug-free, with up to 8 people total sharing watches, meals, stories, and the magic of life at sea.
Some sailing experience is a plus, but not essential. What matters most is a sense of adventure, openness, and a willingness to contribute to life onboard — from trimming sails to cooking, learning, and supporting each other on passage.
This is an early-season North Atlantic crossing — expect powerful weather, long horizons, night watches, and moments you’ll never forget. Safety always comes first, and the itinerary remains flexible to suit conditions.
If you’re looking for more than just a delivery — if you want a true ocean experience, challenge yourself, and be part of a committed crew — this may be for you.

Crew selections will be confirmed by 24 January.
Currently onboard:
• Ross (UK, 49)
• Pedro (Brazil, ~35)
• Bruna (Brazil, ~35)
