Wow it was a whirlwind 4 months: between traveling to Seychelles to visit boats, turning the Expedition dream into a viable Proposal, fundraising $600K (with almost 90 investors!), and handling the purchase of a vessel on the other side of the world.

Check our updated Delivery Voyage itinerary below (we added Galapagos due to so much interest from our Expedition investors!)

Here’s a photo from our sea trial aboard Nesi in April ’23:

It didn’t seem real until our new boat manager sent me photos of the new padlocks he installed on Nesi, the 60ft catamaran located in Seychelles which is now under Green Coco ownership. After all the abstract, endless due diligence & financial paper-shuffling, such a tangible thing is hugely symbolic 🙂

Now what’s the Plan?

— Remainder of 2023: we have a boat manager taking care of Nesi’s maintenance. For Selaví, we are offering “Tuamotus Camp” in Fakarava late August and September, then we sail to Marquesas in October, where we are offering Marquesas trips through end of December.

— January 2024: transition Selavi to new ownership. We’re looking for a new captain for Selaví / new partner for Green Coco Tuamotus, with European passport 🙂 Check out the boat tour here.

— February 2024: we fly to Seychelles and move aboard Nesi. How long does it take, what does it cost? Read here about my first trip to view boats.
