Highlights of this voyage

Cruising between Patagonia and Polynesia

Puerto Montt is situated on the Lake District of Chile. Founded by German settlers, influences of this time can still be seen in this rapidly growing city of >200.000 inhabitants. The waterfront offers a beautiful view of both the colorful city as well as the bay. 

Although sheltered from the Pacific Ocean, it is only a day sail away before you are out on the blue water. Depending on weather and wind, a plan will be made for the first few days. This may include one or more stops in the Lake District. 

Setting sail from Chilean mainland, this voyage will include a stop on the Juan Fernandez island group. A small group of Islands situated 550 miles North West of Puerto Montt. With a prevailing wind along the coast of Southerly or South Westerly winds, this sail should take around 3/4 days maybe 5. The biggest island of the island group is Robinson Crusoe Island. There are several sheltered anchorages possible, depending on wind. The smaller islands are hard to acces with bigger swell, so a visit to any other island depends on weather. 

After this, sail will be set for Easter Island, Rapa Nui. A crossing of 1650 miles. This should take around 10 days. 

Rapa Nui, the island known for the Moai, the standing heads, tropical, wonderful, somewhere you may only go once. Our time on the island is limited. So we advise you to book a stay on the island for some nights to really be able to visit the Moai and the interior of the island.
