Fantastic Experience
I recently completed a 28 day trip from Nassau Bahama to Halifax Nova Scotia aboard Seafinn. Prior to this trip I had no offshore sailing experience. I cannot overstate how fantastic this adventure was. The crew bonded over shared experiences that most people never have. Captain Fredrik is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of his vessel and in navigating ocean crossings. He took his obligations for our safety very seriously and continuously monitored weather forecasts. He provided daily briefings to the crew on weather patterns and his plan of action to address them. The trip was full of amazing sunsets, brilliant constellations, marine mammals, fish and seabirds. If you are looking for for a shared experience sailing a beautiful boat in a natural setting, I highly recommend Captain Fredrik and Seafinn.
