Sailing

Our yacht AURORA is a 60 foot sloop built by Colvic Craft in the UK in 1996. She was designed by David Pedrick for the Clipper Round the World race and has been raced around the world four times. Previous owner was Clipper Ventures Plc based in Gosport, UK. This company was founded by the legendary sailor Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, who was the first person to sail around the world non-stop and single-handed in 1969.

AURORA is the perfect yacht for exciting offshore sailing and ocean crossings. On most of our five day trips in the West Fjords we only get a chance to sail a few hours but on our longer expeditions such as to Jan Mayen and Greenland we will spend 2-4 days at the time at sea under sail.

Each summer we try to bring a qualified instructor for a few days intensive sail training. If you are interested in joining us or to plan a customized ocean sailing course, please do not hesitate to contact us.
