Before the sails go up, this βπΊοΈ
Passage planning is where the voyage actually begins β reading the weather, walking the crew through the route, making sure everyone knows what's ahead. The ocean rewards preparation.

Join us aboard the safest yacht SV Sea Dragon to cross the most epic Bay of Biscay this fall!

Leaving Portsmouth, UK on Oct 17, weβll make landfall across the UK, France, Portugal and arrive in Gran Canaria on Nov 6 2026
Check out the detailed itinerary on our website!

The Bay of Biscay isn't known for being easy.
It's known for being unforgettable.
Big seas, changing weather, and the kind of sailing that reminds you just how powerful the ocean can be.
For some people, that's exactly the reason to go.
Not because it's comfortable.
Because it's real.

Joining the crew means becoming part of a working expedition team, not simply stepping aboard for a vacation. β΅
Hereβs what you can expect before and during your voyage aboard:
π Hands-on participation in sailing and daily vessel operations
π In-depth safety briefing and training time at sea
π Teamwork, watches, and shared responsibilities at sea
π Medical forms and crew documentation before departure
π Detailed welcome packs with itineraries and packing lists
π Limited storage space, soft duffel bags only
π Reduced connectivity while underway, with limited onboard wifi through Starlink
π A dry vessel policy while sailing - means no alcohol
π A true expedition experience focused on learning, adventure, and connection with nature
From sail handling and night watches to daily operations on deck, every crew member plays an active role in the voyage. The first days on board are focused on training, teamwork, and learning the systems of the vessel, giving everyone the confidence to participate fully, regardless of experience level.
Life aboard also comes with a shared responsibility to care for the boat, support one another, and adapt to the rhythm of expedition sailing. Itβs a hands-on experience designed for those who want to challenge themselves, learn practical seamanship, and explore remote parts of the world in a meaningful way.

Thank you @vizsense @waterwaystv for capturing and sharing your experience!

Spending 1,500 nautical miles offshore is no small experience, especially for a first ocean passage.
One of the things we value most aboard Sea Dragon is creating an environment where guest crew can challenge themselves, build confidence at sea, and feel supported throughout the journey. From learning new skills on deck to adapting to life offshore, every voyage becomes a shared experience shaped by the people on board.
Weβre grateful to have been part of this adventure and thankful for the trust placed in our crew along the way. π

Thereβs a completely different feeling that comes with reaching a place by sea.
No crowded ports. No rushed itineraries. No arriving for a few hours before moving on again.
Just open water, remote coastlines, and the kind of places that still feel genuinely untouched.
These are the corners of the world that cruise ships donβt reach, and honestly, thatβs exactly why we love them.
The journey takes longer, the conditions can change quickly, and life on board becomes part of the experience itself. But thatβs also what makes it unforgettable.

1st time crossing the legendary Labrador Sea.
Congratulations to yβall!
Very few sailors can claim this π

Most people experience the Pacific from 35,000 feet in the air.
But sailing across it changes your relationship with distance completely.
You notice the gradual shifts in weather, the wildlife around you, and the feeling of arriving somewhere slowly instead of instantly. Remote islands feel even more remote when youβve crossed the ocean to reach them.
It takes longer, of course. But thatβs kind of the point.
The Pacific was never meant to be rushed through.
