A voyage is one thing. Learning to sail along the way makes it something else.
We’re so glad you enjoyed the voyage, learned along the way, and would do it all again. We’d be happy to have you back on board anytime! 🌊

Ever wondered why you feel instant clarity out at sea? Breaking ocean waves release negative ions that elevate serotonin levels, reducing stress and boosting mood naturally. Beyond the science, it's pure freedom 🌊

☀️ The San Blas Islands are calling 🌴
In February 2027, we’ll be sailing from Aruba across the Caribbean to the palm-fringed anchorages of the legendary San Blas Islands, before continuing on to Colón, Panama.
Around 700 nautical miles of open-water sailing, turquoise shallows, white-sand cays, remote anchorages and island time. We’ll settle into life at sea, explore the islands, and soak up tropical freedom.
A Blast in San Blas
31 Jan – 8 Feb 2027
Aruba → San Blas Islands → Colón
Somewhere between the sea, the islands and the horizon, this one might just be worth answering the call.
Find out more and book your place on our website.

Crossing into the Arctic Circle is a rite of passage few get to experience ⚓✨
During our Blue Nose Ceremony, Skipper Ineke read Neptune’s message, clearing our crew for safe passage through the realm of ice and cold. A moment of tradition, adventure, and connection on the open sea 🌊⛵
Would you brave the Arctic waters? 👇

We’re delighted to welcome August Race @augustrace as a Panexplore partner!
Every expedition leaves an impact, and choosing the right products is one of the ways we can help minimise ours. August Race creates cleaning products specifically designed with the marine environment in mind, and is the only cleaning product range compliant with MARPOL Annex V.
As we travel through remote waters and spend more time offshore, we believe looking after the places we visit should be part of every expedition. That means making thoughtful choices about the equipment, products and practices we bring on board.
We’re proud to partner with August Race as we continue exploring with a greater focus on protecting the marine environments that make these adventures possible.
Here’s to cleaner boats, cleaner waters and many more miles of responsible exploration. 🌊⛵

✨ Celestial navigation is one of the oldest ways to find your way at sea, and there’s nothing quite like putting it into practice offshore.
Join us for an offshore passage and work towards qualifying for your Ocean Yachtmaster while developing your celestial navigation skills along the way.
We’ll have sextants and all the required documentation onboard, with our Skipper and 1st Mate on hand to coach you through taking your sights and putting them to use.
Feeling ready for more responsibility? You may even get the chance to take charge for 24 hours and see if you can navigate us to where we want to go!
Ready to put your skills to the test?
👉 DM us to find out more and request our availabilities.

Before GPS, sailors relied on the stars, the sun, and a sextant to find their way across vast ocean stretches. 🧭✨
Here’s a quick 1-minute breakdown of how this classic instrument works onboard SV Sea Dragon during Yachtmaster training!

Exceptional opportunity to meet the team at @rorcracing Cowes Clubhouse on October 1st at 1800 BST for a Talk about how we operate SV Sea Dragon - a Challenge 72 yacht refitted to sail around the world without a dedicated maintenance team nor home port or container. Being commercially coded Cat 0 by the UK MCA while flagged in the Cayman Islands and owned by a US company is always a joy, that’s before we start working on our 110V system, with our UK supplied engine, our british sized jammers and our US-sized lines. We had to identify a network of reliable and expert contractors, a gigantic servicing calendar that competes with a ballet dancing sheet and our very own app to manage all our boat systems, inventory and maintenance log.
We’ll open up our black box of operational genius that makes us look like we effortlessly run a truly global expedition yacht! Spoilers: we sweat a lot underneath the great looks 😅
