This sailing trip begins in Oban on the Scottish mainland and, after a multi-day crossing, takes us to the unique archipelago of the Faroe Islands. The sailing challenges of the North Atlantic present a special experience, demanding precise navigation and seamanship.

We depart from Oban and set course for the Scottish islands. Ahead of us lies a breathtaking coastal landscape dotted with countless unspoiled islands of the Hebrides. Many of these islands bear the names of world-famous whiskies. Indeed, the islands are home to numerous distilleries, some located directly in our anchorages, making for an attractive shore excursion. Well-known whisky distilleries and renowned towns such as Tobermory, Islay, and Barra could be along our route.

Of course, longer shore excursions mean that we also have to sail non-stop for several days before and after. But that's exactly what we want. We believe it's the mix that makes it work. After all, we want to feel like we're discovering something new, both on the open sea and in our ports of call.

Finally, we set course for Tórshavn, the capital of the Faroe Islands. This volcanic archipelago lies in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean between Scotland and Iceland. We are waiting for a suitable weather window for the approximately 250-nautical-mile crossing. This offshore leg will take us about two to three days non-stop on the Atlantic. The total length of this passage is approximately 500 nautical miles.
