The platform
A home. A workshop. A mission platform.
Our Nautitech Open 46 is a 46-foot ocean-going catamaran — chosen for the combination of a stable, comfortable liveaboard platform and the practical capability a mission like this needs. Twin hulls and a shallow draft mean we can reach anchorages that deeper monohulls can’t.

The route
First 18 months: the Atlantic, the Caribbean and Central America.
Provisional, and dependent on safety and weather. This route gives partners a clear first activation horizon before the wider circumnavigation is planned.
Route shown schematically, not to nautical scale. Provisional — safety and weather dependent.
