The Course
Join the "Three Volcanoes Expedition," a 750 NM passage from the North Adriatic to the Tyrrhenian Sea.
We descend the entire length of the Adriatic, navigate the mythical Strait of Messina (Scylla and Charybdis), and set our course by the glow of three active giants: Etna, Stromboli, and Vesuvius.
Highlights:
📌 Volcanic Route: Night sailing past the glowing cone of Stromboli.
📌 Messina Strait: Mastering heavy traffic and tidal currents.
This is a non-stop, immersive offshore masterclass designed to build your confidence for serious ocean sailing.
You will gain invaluable experience in:
✅ Strategic Passage Planning: Master the logistics of international voyaging, including weather routing for the Otranto and Messina Strait crossings.
✅ Offshore Watch Systems: Learn the rhythm of life at sea, managing sleep, nutrition, and vessel performance 24/7 over multiple days.
✅ Technical Navigation: Hone your skills in diverse environments—from the open sea swell of the Ionian to the precise pilotage required for the Messina Strait.
✅ Heavy Weather Handling: Develop the confidence to manage the yacht in changing sea states as we transition from Adriatic wind patterns to the Mediterranean climate.
Our expedition concludes as we sail into the Bay of Naples, docking in Sorrento with a breathtaking view of the city and the majestic Mount Vesuvius looming in the background. 🌋
