About this boat

Embark on an unforgettable sailing adventure aboard the 15.5m (51ft) Gulet Traversée CONTINENT/CORSE, departing from Marseille for the enchanting island of Corsica. This authentic gulet offers a unique blend of traditional charm and modern comfort, perfectly suited for a 5-guest sailing voyage across the Mediterranean.

Unlike standard ferry crossings, this charter experience allows you to explore the Corsican coastline at your own pace, with stops at hidden coves and historic ports. The Gulet Traversée is verified for on-water comfort and is available for private charter during the high season.

Marseille → Calvi | Aboard the schooner La Ricorne (50 ft / 15 m) Maximum 5 guests Step aboard for much more than a journey: a true offshore sailing passage — committed, friendly, and respectful of the sea. Aboard La Ricorne, a 50-foot schooner, I offer a sailing passage between Marseille and Calvi, paced by the wind and weather conditions. Departure is planned around 8:00 pm, with arrival in Calvi approximately 35 hours later, after sailing both day and night. For comfort and safety, the number of guests is limited to 5 per crossing. One essential point: weather comes first La Ricorne is a sailing vessel — and the sea has the final say. Departure and arrival times may be adjusted (before or after the scheduled date) to ensure safe, comfortable sailing in line with weather conditions. This flexibility is an integral part of the experience: accepting the sea, the wind, and their unpredictability is already a first step into offshore sailing. An eco-friendly and committed way to travel This crossing is not simply transportation between the mainland and Corsica. By coming aboard, you choose: a low-carbon mode of travel, primarily under sail a concrete alternative to motorized transport a slower, more mindful, and more respectful way to cross the Mediterranean Sailing means embracing unhurried time and restoring meaning to the journey itself. A unique and educational experience This crossing is participatory and open to everyone, with no sailing experience required. You will have the opportunity to: discover offshore sailing learn to sail at night take part in watches, maneuvers, and daily life on board understand the management of a 15-meter vessel at sea All in a friendly, supportive, and instructive atmosphere, close to the spirit of a shared delivery passage. Who is this for? Curious and open-minded travelers Sailing enthusiasts or motivated beginners People sensitive to ecology and authentic experiences Those who want to experience the sea, not just cross it Practical information Vessel: La Ricorne schooner – 50 ft Route: Marseille → Calvi Estimated duration: ~35 hours (weather-dependent) Participation in onboard life required.
