The yacht has already completed several thousand miles and will welcome new crew in Fiji, with the contract running to at least April 2027, finishing in Antigua.
 
The family have two children (aged 9 and 10), so it’s important you genuinely enjoy working with kids - supporting their learning, activities, and interest in sailing, alongside the parents.
