Don’t be fooled. These ships are only called Small Ships because they’re smaller than Tall Ships. Still, these ocean worthy sailing beauties can take up the challenge with their bigger sisters anytime. With a length of up to 40 meters and an average sail surface of 400 square meters, Small Ships are fast, elegant and agile. They take a crew of around 18 people, so if working in a smaller team is more your thing, a Small Ship is your best call.
Get ready for the real thing. Get ready for the big girls. The Tall Ships in the impressive Windseeker fleet can take up to 150 passengers and crew. With a sail surface up to around 800 square meters or more, these sailing giants have no problem catching the lightest breeze. A walk around the whole ship can take you up to ten minutes. Raising all sails at once? Rally 50 people. And the biggest thrill of it all: you and your fellow Windseekers are the ones making it all come to life.
Feel each ripple below, every gust of wind above, and share your personal impressions with the small crew of no more than 12 people. Whether you want to explore tropical waters up close, get your Royal Yacht Master Certificate or just get down to the basics in a tight team: experience the true essence of sailing and join the Windseeker crew on one of our well equipped Yachts.
