Set sail between Ullapool and Tenerife on a 19 day mile maker south towards the sunshine!
Setting sail from Harlinger, Netherlands to Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain in autumn time is always a challenge. The weather is changeable, with low pressure areas rolling in and every day getting colder. But as you make your way South you will forget your long johns and be in shorts as you moor in Tenerife.
This is a hands on voyage where you are the crew. Take the helm, set the sails and help navigate the ship. No experience needed (just a sense of adventure and team spirit!) you’ll be taught all you need to know by the professional crew.
This voyage is perfect for mile collectors: with basic ship keeping tasks such as steering and watch keeping (both day and night), you will be able to log some serious time and miles!

Tour operator
An old Herring drifter (Logger) built in 1915, the ship is 28 meters long over deck (38 meters overall) and takes 16 trainees on her voyages. No previous sailing experience is needed and experienced and new sailors love her equally.
A family of four professional sailors have owned and run this vessel since 2006 and sail her with true passion. Built for the North Sea she’s a fast sailor and her rigging is as traditional as it gets.
We love that the boat’s appearance is kept as traditional as possible yet combined with modern techniques and equipment. Everyone on board is part of the informal sail training program that is designed to get the best out of everyone whether you join for 2 days or a longer ocean crossing.
On September 13th she and her crew were the first traditional sailing ship to complete the North West Passage after Roald Admundsen with his ship Goya in 2013.
