Atlantic crossing/ West to East Blue Water approx. 2400 nautical miles
Détails
April 6 - April 30, 2023
On this cruise an Atlantic crossing is announced ⛵️❤️
We start on St. Marteen and will keep NNE to an altitude of about 28° North to catch better wind windows there. The winds at the start in the Leewards tend to blow from the east before changing to south to southwest.
However, the winds are rather mild at this time of year, and there can often be longer periods of calm. Of course, low-pressure areas also pass by, where it can sometimes be really stormy.
Depending on the wind direction, it can of course come to uncomfortable cross courses, so it is rather difficult to estimate how long the whole thing will last.
Up to the Azores it is about 2200 nautical miles, but depending on the wind it can quickly be 2500 - 2700 nautical miles. Should be to be created however in good 3 weeks.
For this trip it is an advantage if you have already been on board for at least 1 week on a blue water trip, where day and night was sailed, to be able to estimate the whole better.
If we arrive earlier in the Azores, we will of course sail diligently in this wonderful area.
