Sailing in the carribean / Hop-on Hop-off
We are Magnus and Camilla, and we look forward to welcoming you on board! We are a Swedish couple pursuing a life filled with adventure. Once our children grew up, we cast off on our first joint journey in the autumn of 2022. Although we have been sailing together since then, Magnus has had the ocean as his second home and has been sailing his entire life—literally since he was a newborn. After spending recent years living aboard during the winters, this September 2026 marks a much bigger chapter. We are heading out on a long-term journey with the ultimate goal of sailing all the way around the world, and we love welcoming guests on board for different legs of our journey!
Rent a cabin, a single bed, or book the entire boat if there is availability. For your convenience, both a skipper and a first mate are included, and all food on board is part of the package. Anyone can sail along with us, regardless of previous sailing experience. If you dream of cruising around the Caribbean but haven’t been able to make it happen on your own, this is the perfect journey for you.
Please note that we are not tour guides, and there is no fixed itinerary or organized touring here. Instead, we invite you to experience this relaxed, slow-paced boat life just as it is. Our main focus is exploring the islands, so we won’t be sailing all the time. We love staying put for a while, and when we feel like going for a hike or exploring a new spot, we will always ask if anyone wants to tag along—but you are equally welcome to head out and do your own thing.
Once we drop anchor, the choice is yours: you can rent a car, take a local bus, hike, sunbathe, swim, go diving, or just relax. After a couple of days, a week or so—or whenever we feel like moving on—we will set sail for the next destination.
Joining our boat means stepping into our sailing lifestyle. We treat our guests like good friends sharing a journey, so instead of a rigid charter service, we enjoy a relaxed, collaborative vibe. Breakfast and lunch are easygoing and informal, where everyone can fixes their own meals whenever they feel like it. Dinner is our main social gathering—we take turns cooking for each other and helping with the dishes, keeping it flexible and spontaneous rather than scheduled. Plus, with a dishwasher on board for port days, tidying up is a breeze. As your skipper and first mate, we take care of all the navigation, leaving you to enjoy a safe, fun, and authentic adventure.
We hold a casual daily briefing to chat about the plan for the day. It’s a space for everyone to share ideas and plan together, even though the Skipper always has the final say for safety based on prevailing weather conditions etc.

Maximum number of participants: 8 guests plus our skipper and first mate.
In suitable places, you dock in harbors or anchors and experience new nice places! On some stretches, a slightly higher pace is maintained. Then it can be a wonderful night sailing because you go longer distances without stopping, and in that case everyone gets to take part in divided watch shifts. It’s a fantastic feeling to glide under the stars or in the glistening moonlight. When the opportunity arises, people go to restaurants ashore for a change and to see a little more of life ashore.
