Category: Sailing Routes & Passages

Route guides written by skippers who sail these passages for a living, moving owners' yachts between the Baltic, the UK, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic islands and the Caribbean. Each guide covers the season, distances, typical weather windows and the decisions we make on the way. If you would rather have your boat delivered on one of these routes, see our yacht delivery service or browse deliveries we have completed.
