Does anyone know if there are any companies/organizations that offer the possibility to sail the Atlantic by boat as a passenger (so not as a (more or less) experienced crew member). Are there any? Or announced plans or something like that?

(I’m not talking about being a passenger on a large cargo ship. I’m curious about the possibility to cross the Atlantic with a low carbon footprint).

    If you are looking to make the crossing on a sailboat under 50’, there are a few hitchhiker facebook groups that are pretty active. Maybe start in the FBG 'All Things Sailing" and move on from there.

      Interesting, thanks. What does “fulltime liveaboard crusier” mean? You spend your days sailing the ocean? In sailing boats?

        I’ve been living full-time off the grid for six years on my Bayfield 29, either sailing or at anchor. After storm season I’ll be leaving the States bound to Colombia, Brazil & Panama.
