Voyage

  Bermuda – Stavanger 05.02. – 04.03. 2025

 How about joining Christian Radich from St. Martin to Bermuda first? You will experience both the Caribbean and the voyage all the way to Norway – what a contrast! We will follow the North Atlantic’s westerly winds and sail as much as we can. The route will be planned according to the weather forecast and if we hit the right wind, we might stop in the Azores or in the northern parts of Great Britain on our way, but first and foremost we are going to sail!

We aim to win the Boston Tea Pot Trophy 2025!

Christian Radich has won the Tall Ships Races many times, but never this trophy which was founded as early as 1964: Whoever sails the longest distance in a period of 124 hours (5 days and 4 hours) wins the trophy. We will sign up and our goal is to win the trophy in 2025. And you can join this voyage! Imagine sailing all the way from the Caribbean to Norway! After a month at sea, we arrive in Stavanger, and you have been on the voyage of your lifetime! Sailing experience is not necessary on this voyage either. We give you training on board, but you must be in good enough physical shape to be able to contribute to your watch team.

Health Form

Everyone with normal good health can sail with Christian Radich. An important part of the experience to all trainees is to be able to sail as much as possible. We expect that most of you enter the rig as well, but if you don’t want to join this, please inform your watch leader. If you have any health limitations or disabilities, this must be further evaluated. On sea, health limitations can be extended, and especially if bad weather occurs. We expect that every trainee can take care of her- or himself, it is not possible for our crew to pay extra attention to each individual trainee.  If you answer positive on one or more of these questions, you must contact us for an evaluation.

If you are over 67 years, you must send us the health declaration, signed by your doctor.
