Sailing adventures on the Atlantic
When nature leads to connection, and labour leads to love
Onboard Spirit, every journey is shaped by active involvement: sailing, navigating, keeping watch, sharing meals, even helping with maintenance. This is a vessel from the golden age of yacht design, where elegance meets purpose and the focus shifts from luxury to authenticity. Whether seasoned sailor or first-timer, all you need is a passion for adventure and a willingness to learn.
Spirit of Ostend is a classic 70-foot steel schooner. Built in 1972 in the Hamble, South England, and fitted out in St. Malo in the style of an Edwardian “gentleman’s” yacht, she carries both tradition and timeless grace.
Formerly known as Spirit of Oysterhaven, she sailed for more than 20 years from the beautiful bay of Oysterhaven in Ireland. A fast and responsive yacht in her class, she has competed in successive Antigua Classic Regattas in the Caribbean and Tall Ships Regattas in the Mediterranean.
With her long keel and 50 tons displacement, she offers both stability and speed on the wild Atlantic waves.
