You will be one of only 10 people to take the world's first ultra-low environmental impact expedition yacht through the fabled Northwest Passage. You will have been there as we designed the yacht, visited it in les Sables D'Olonne. You will have got to know the incredible team of engineers and designers who built this pioneering, high tech vessel. You will have been there at the launch, joined the inaugural voyage and at least one qualifying high latitude passage. You will also undertake specialist Arctic survival training yourself. Now, you will attempt the greatest passage of them all.
Expedition Membership allocates you a berth on the greatest expedition of your life...
It starts with an interview. If successful, you will be offered "Expedition club membership" which you can accept by paying the expedition club membership fee, your place will be allocated on the Northwest passage expedition.
Once the yacht is complete, you will be offered the chance to take up your berth by paying the berth fee of (in instalments) - you then get Expedition gear and details of how to join the survival training, required for the voyage. You will do at least one high latitude qualifying passage on top of having the opportunity to join one of the first voyages of the vessel
