North, until
the ice.
Cap II, our 77 ft aluminium CNB, sails for the Arctic — the pack ice and midnight sun of Svalbard in summer, the northern lights of Norway in the dark season. Extreme sailing, briefed and skippered in Spanish and English.
Biscay is
the classroom.
Hondarribia sits where the Pyrenees meet the Atlantic — ocean swell, real tide and real weather, with the Basque coast and the French border on our doorstep.
