Day 4 sailing from Antigua to the Bahamas! ๐ง๐ธ
Sometimes on long passages it takes a few days to get used to life at sea, hand steering, and waking up for watches. But today the whole crew is awake at the same time, we had a beautiful sunrise, REAL coffee, and PANCAKES!

โ ๏ธThis isnโt a cruise. Itโs an expedition.
Panexplore runs hands-on adventure sailing voyages to some of the worldโs most remote waters โ from open-ocean crossings to wild, rarely visited islands โ aboard SV Sea Dragon.
On every expedition, everyone is crew. Whether itโs your first time at sea or youโre an experienced sailor, youโll be actively involved: standing watch, learning to sail offshore, navigating, and exploring places few people ever reach.
With a large and diverse professional team - more than 50% of our pro crew are women: a Yachtmaster Ocean Skipper, a Yachtmaster Offshore 1st mate and up to 2 experienced deckhands - Panexplore offers a safe, supportive environment to build real skills, push your comfort zone, and experience the ocean properly โ from spotting rare wildlife to navigating by the stars.
Our 2026 expeditions are now open.
Places are limited, and each voyage is intentionally small.
โต Join an expedition. Be part of the crew.

Nobody warned us the ARC Rally would involve this much laughing.
Somewhere between the Canaries and St. Lucia, we remembered what this race is really about: good people, good spirit, and showing up for each other offshore.
Honored (and honestly still smiling) to receive the @arc_rally Media Award โ proof that authenticity, humor, and real moments matter just as much as perfect sailing shots.
Endless gratitude for the ARC Rally, our incredible guests, and a crew that absolutely understood the assignment.
This is what adventure looks like when you encourage people be human and let go! โต๏ธ
