Destinations
We are now offering a variety of unique sightseeing adventures, which combine sailing on a round the world racing yacht with qualified RYA instructors, and spending time in some of the most unspoilt and hidden gems of the Caribbean that are off the mass tourism trail.
Tours on the islands are many, varied and are all optional.
The first adventure took place back in April, and our guests explored Antigua, Dominica and Iles des Saintes (Guadaloupe). All meals whilst sailing are included, as is accommodation onboard.
Ondeck’s racing yacht is a Farr 65, which competes in the Caribbean regatta season. She is a hands on sail boat and you will get to experience using a pedestal grinder. She has a full suite of North 3di sails plus spinnaker.
