2026 Voyage Schedule
Scroll down to select your voyage and reserve your berth. If the spreadsheet below it not displaying clearly, you can view our 2026 summer schedule in Google Sheets here.
Before you reserve your berth:
Read our Cancellation Policy. Unless you are one of the first people to reserve a berth, your deposit and ticket cost are non-refundable.
Read through our website and understand what it means to go voyaging. This is an adventure, not a cruise. Approach this the way you would a backpacking trip in terms of being outdoors…except you will have a memory foam mattress, proper bedding, and you will eat far better than any camping menu.
After you reserve your berth:
Pause looking at your computer for a moment. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and imagine yourself steering a tall ship at night under the stars. Hear the wind in the sails, the spray of the bow cutting through the waves, and feel the ship rock beneath your feet. You are about to have the adventure of a lifetime.
You will receive an automated email with your receipt for your $500 deposit. In that email is a link to this form, which we request you fill out immediately after booking.
Depending on how many other guest crew are signed onto your voyage, the total ticket cost may be due right when you book. We will email you a payment link. Once your full ticket is paid, there will be other forms that you will need to submit such as our Liability Waiver, Medical Form, etc.
In May-June 2026, we will organize a group video call with you, the other guest crew on your voyage, and the captain. We will review the voyage plan, cruise track, expected weather, and answer questions.
Between this call and your departure, we will send you weekly emails with material you can study if you wish. The more you immerse in seamanship in advance, the more you will get out of your time aboard.
Two weeks before your voyage we will have another video call to review the weather and cover any final logistics.
