OUR HISTORY
The Original Posse was founded in May of 2017 at the Marina and Isla Navidad Resort in Barra de Navidad, MX.
15 cruising couples and a motor vessel milling about the lush resort and pool had their hands up interested in heading south. AIYA, RAVEN, BULA, LIQUID, XENIA, RESPITE, MAGIC, AVANT ( chimed in from Chiapas) , GEORGIA, CROSSROADS, SHEARWATER, DAD’S DREAM SANS FRONTIERES and EASY are just a few vessels who helped shape the camaraderie and voice of the Ocean Posse.
FEW RULES
YOUR VESSEL – YOUR CREW – YOUR RESPONSIBILITY
WE OPERATE UNDER INTERNATIONAL MARITIME LAW
FOLLOW EACH Country’s OFFICIAL RULES
SCHEDULE
WE DO NOT SAIL ON A SCHEDULE – WE NEVER HAVE and WE NEVER WILL, NEVER
SCHEDULES KILL SAILORS & SINK VESSELS AND ARE KNOWN AS THE MOST DANGEROUS ITEM ON A YACHT
WE SAIL WHEN THE WEATHER IS GOOD AND WE CROSS WHEN THERE IS A GOOD WEATHER WINDOW
The best time to cross the Atlantic to the Caribbean is between November and February. The Mid-Atlantic tradewinds – Easterly winds that travel continuously from east to west – are stable and (usually) unaffected by hurricanes at this time of year.
