Trip/Voyage details |
This boat is replica of a ship from 600bc, the time which many believe the Phoenician's made the first circumnavigation of Africa. The ship was recently built in Syria and is heading for the Red Sea to re-enact this historic journey. The is an historic expedition the way the Phoenicians did it, so there is no engine and virtually everything is authentic. Conditions are relatively basic, there is no air con, microwaves or built in showers etc. We do have modern nav equipment and safety standards. Above all this is a sailing ship making a challenging trip around Africa..around the Horn of Africa and the Cape of Good Hope. The crew is unpaid and they generally make a modest contribution for food and their flights as this is genuinly a once in a life time adventure. There is a good mixture of experience and youth on board but we need some more hands to help sail the ship! | |
