Corsair project

This project is a sailing exploration and the adventure journey of a lifetime for a bunch of modern day novice explorers and adventurers aboard Corsair ( a 66ft steel ketch true blue water cruiser yacht ), in the distinct company of all those who share our vision, having the following key targets & main objectives in mind as a crew:

TARGET N.1

This is what the crew and captain have in mind , for themselves and for the crowd funding guests and friends joining us along the way

--------------
  • Spiritual growth achieved from experiencing our beautiful world while crossing oceans.
  • Challenging ourselves on sailing trips undertaken all over our blue planet.
  • Exploring very remote places in a variety of different situations and adverse weather conditions.
  • Experiencing pleasant tropical islands and later on eventually reaching arctic regions on our next expeditions.

TARGET N.2

This is how we intend to finance, promote, advertise, market and sustain the whole operation

--------------
  • Team building exercises tailored to private customers , corporate clients and business executives.
  • Our clients could be tested to the limit of their personal ability by the crew / yacht / ocean /weather via a series of exercises and tests designed to find their individual & collective strengths and weaknesses.

TARGET N.3

This is the knowledge and experience we know we need to acquire, so we can safely push our boundaries to the limits

--------------
  • Establishing a network of extremely capable male and female sailors and explorers.
  • Test and push ourselves to the edges of human oceanic exploration capability and endurance.
  • Support the development of new advanced safety & emergency sailing equipment , in partnerships with manufacturers.

TARGET N.4

This is how we intend to pay back and reward the universe for allowing us to bring our project to reality :

--------------
  • Promote and encourage women and young people to take up exciting & modern careers in the sailing & adventure tourism industries.
  • Help them gain ocean experience via free sailing introductory packages & temporary placements on our yacht during ocean crossings .

TARGET N.5 

This is something which if we are successful will hopefully inspire next generations of sailors that its possible to travel around the world without using engines & burning fossil fuels and , so there is an environmental positive message to be shared with the world .

--------------

  • Aim to complete a full circumnavigation without using our main engine and relying only on our sails.
  • Document the real life experience of handling by sail alone a 66ft yacht that weights over 30 tonnes as we tackle currents, reefs , wind & waves , especially when approaching and departing new ports.
  • Video record the 20-25 stops around the world in various challenging and difficult anchorages, harbours, ports and lagoons. Create a guide on how to cross the Panama canal engine-less.
  • Make Rollo ( our dog ) an internet sensation , as we depict and share with the world how he deals with the challenges a pet encounters on such a voyage.
  • Share on social media any environmental pollution we encounter along the way.
