24 hours at sea aboard a Volvo 60, a 19.50m monohull from the Volvo Ocean Race, around the world sailing. A unique and unprecedented experience for teammates thirsty for jibing, tacking, tackling, conditions that are sometimes more than sporting… sensations, shall we say!
Generation Volvo Ocean Race, extreme round-the-world crewed tour
Supervised by 3 professional offshore racing sailors, you embark for 24 hours non-stop as a teammate to live as a crew an exceptional experience.
You will be 100% involved in the running of the boat, in the analysis of the route to follow and the night shifts. For sleeping and catering on board, that’s the union minimum! Bunks, a gas stove, freeze-dried food and a toilet.
Extremely sailor and swift, Libertalia is a large 65-foot monohull, built for the open sea. On the deck, double helm station and double winch columns for the grinders! Hydraulics and ballasts complete the power on board. Rigged as a sloop with a carbon mast, this Volvo 60 has a large and varied wardrobe!
24 hours at sea as a crew member aboard a Volvo 60
This exceptional formula is a parenthesis in the spirit of the Volvo Ocean Race. It allows on-board crew members to understand a “sailor’s slice” of what offshore professionals experience around the world as a crew.
Confirmed sailor, passionate, curious but also novices if you feel like it, you will be supervised by a professional crew who will help you make the most of this offshore racing experience. 100% invested in the running of the boat, however, make sure you are at least moored! Be aware that there is no comfort on board such a performance oriented racing yacht. So this is not a quiet, family cruise!
