The 35-meter two-master is a fast schooner with an adventurous and low-emission sailing program following ancient trade routes round the Atlantic. Sailing across the ocean in this way is a low-carbon experience, and the organisers consider it a sustainable alternative to air travel. By joining this adventure, individuals take the first step towards eco-friendly intercontinental travel.
With room for 18 passengers in cozy cabins and a spacious day area below deck, it’s your home away from home. Indeed, for those taking part in the Climate conference COP30 the vessel can be used as a hotel in Belem for a special rate during the conference.
This climate conference will take place from November 10 to 21, 2025 in Belem, Brazil. On board we have facilities to continue working or meet and prepare for the COP – the vessel is equipped with satellite internet, providing a stable connection to people ashore so work can be continued even in the middle of the ocean.
This voyage is meant for people who want to visit COP30 but it is not just about the destination. This trip is a showcase of sustainable and meaningful travelling. The time on board is used to connect to your fellow travellers, to prepare for COP30 and enjoy the beauty of the ocean and the places being visited during the stopovers.

Accommodation
This intercontinenal trip is made on a two-master with a lenght of 35 meters and one of the Dutch fleet’s most beautiful ships. This thoroughbred sailing ship is very suitable for crossing the oceans and has done so many times. There is room for 18 passengers on board, who can spend the night in comfortable cabins. Below deck there is also a spacious day area where meals are served and the wheelhouse has comfortable sofas with all-round views.
Meals
The meals are provided by a professional chef who has a fully equipped galley at her disposal.
Who is this trip for?
This is a trip for active travellers, we sail this ship together. Sailing experience is not required, an active and open attitude is, though. We teach you everything you need to know along the way, from navigating to steering the ship, and you disembark an old sea dog. Naturally, there is also plenty of time to relax, read a book and have stimulating conversations with your fellow travellers. We sail into the night and all aboard are assigned watches. In this manner, we can continue sailing and everybody on the ship has enough time to rest, eat and sleep besides sailing. It is, however, not mandatory to stand all of your watches. The nights at sea are magical, though. Because of a complete lack of light pollution, you are not just stargazing; you can see the whole milkyway laid out before you.
Arriving at port after a long sea voyage is an unparalleled experience; try walking straight on those newly acquired sea legs!
Additional notes
Arrived in Belem, the ship anchors on the river and can be your basecamp. The crew will taxi back and forth to the shore with the dingy during the day. Secluded meetings can be organised on the ship as well.
After the COP we sail back to Europe. But we have to take the seasons and weather system of the Atlantic Ocean into account. Directly after the COP the conditions on the Atlantic will be harsh and unpleasant. We offer to bring you to the wonderful island of Trinidad after the COP to have a va- or stay-cation and to hop back on board when the conditions are favourable to sail back to Europe.
Important to know: The vessel sailing to COP 30 have an auxiliary engine and generators on board. The crew use the auxiliary engine to sail in and out of ports and if safety requires it. The trade winds on the Atlantic are fairly stable and reliable, it is well possible to complete the route by sail within the stipulated time. During this trip, generators will provide the ship with electricity. Their use will be limited as much as possible.
