A THREE WEEK NON-STOP SAILING ADVENTURE
January 19, 2018 - February 9, 2018
This sailing trip starts in Balboa, the Pacific-side port of the Panama Canal. The town is located only a short distance from Panama City and was founded by the United States during the construction of the Panama Canal. After your arrival at the international airport in Panama City you may have time for a stroll through "Casco Viejo". This 341 year old Spanish colonial sector & UNESCO World Heritage Site certainly is worth a visit!
On Friday January 19th the captain and his crew will welcome you on board and after a night in the harbor your sailing adventure will begin early the next morning. A non-stop voyage from Panama to San Diego for about 20 days during which many aspects of sailing on a Clipper will occur.
CLIPPER SHIP ENTHUSIASTS
It will take quite some effort from crew and vessel to sail the ship to her destination in California, U.S.A. For 3 weeks non-stop - no ports will be visited along the way - you will be working together with the crew and learn all about the techniques of square rig sailing. At sea not one day will be the same and completing the nearly 3000 miles in total will be an unforgettable experience.
Please note that at this time of year it is expected that there will be a number of days with unfavorable (head)winds in which case the engine will be turned on to guarantee our scheduled arrival date. However with certainty we can say that there will be enough to do and many instructions to learn from our crew and captain.
