The Anemos crew is made up of 2 crews of between 7 and 9 sailors each, who rotate during a predefined sailing period. Each crew is made up of :
Having left the port of Le Havre just two days ago, the Anemos is already making good speed, taking advantage of the steady winds off Roscoff. This view symbolizes the first hours of an ambitious transatlantic crossing from France to New York. The cargo sailboat, loaded with its precious cargo, is gradually moving away from the French coast, leaving behind the first miles of this voyage resolutely committed to decarbonization.
Under heavy skies and choppy seas, the Anemos is under full sail, defying the imposing waves of the Atlantic. The outstretched sails capture all the power of the wind, propelling the ship in a harmonious cadence despite the swell. This demanding navigation, true to TOWT’s commitment, highlights the Anemos’s ability to face the elements while progressing without a drop of fuel. An authentic crossing, in total symbiosis with nature.
As the Anemos continues its journey, the sun slowly fades over the horizon, tinting the sky with golden and orange hues. On deck, a few crew members enjoy this luminous interlude, savoring the serenity of a sunset on the open sea. These shared moments are a reminder of the simple, timeless beauty of sailing, where each day offers its share of unique, ephemeral landscapes.
Framed by the last light of day, the Anemos lifebuoy stands out against a blazing sky. A symbol of safety at sea, it reminds us that every crossing depends on the vigilance and control of the crew. As the sun disappears behind the horizon, the Anemos continues on its way, carried by the wind and the determination of its crew.
Winds pick up as the Anemos crosses the Gulf Stream. This powerful oceanic river, with its fast-moving, ever-changing currents, puts the cargo sailboat to the test, as she sails at full speed into the heart of this natural phenomenon. Between sustained winds and rough seas, each mile covered bears witness to the strength and ingenuity of sailing.
After 24 days at sea, the Anemos made landfall in New York, concluding another North Atlantic crossing. Carried by the force of the winds, she arrives loaded with her precious cargo, continuing her mission to decarbonize maritime transport. Under the lights of the city, this stopover marks a key stage before setting sail again for new horizons.
