No notifications. No deadlines. No crazy rhythm of life pulling you in every direction. Just wind, water, and the quiet realization that you are exactly where you chose to be. For the crew of Pelican, an Excess 14 Catamaran, that moment didn’t come by accident. It was the result of a decision—one that many dream about, but few actually make: to leave behind the familiar and cross an ocean.
There’s a moment, somewhere far from land, when the noise of the world fades completely.
The adventure began with the Atlantic.
This is often the first real test—the moment when preparation meets reality. Long days at sea, building confidence, learning the boat, learning each other. It’s where routines are created, and where sailors begin to understand what life offshore really means.
Aboard Pelican, the Excess 14 proved exactly what it was designed for: a catamaran that delivers both comfort and real sailing sensations. Responsive, alive, and made for those who want to stay connected to the wind and the sea—not just travel across it.
Through the Panama Canal: A Turning Point
If the Atlantic is about proving you can do it, the Panama Canal is where the journey shifts.
Crossing from one ocean to another is more than a geographic milestone—it’s symbolic. You leave one chapter behind and enter another. The rhythm changes. The mindset evolves.
Beyond the locks, a new horizon opens: the Pacific.
The Pacific Crossing: Space, Silence, Perspective
Joining the Pacific Puddle Jump through Sail Tahiti, Pelican became part of a larger migration—boats and crews all chasing the same distant islands.
Out there, everything simplifies.
Days fall into a steady rhythm of sailing, watches, and shared moments. Nights stretch under endless stars. The outside world fades, replaced by something quieter—and somehow more real.
The Pacific isn’t just a crossing. It’s space to think, to disconnect, to reset.
More Than Miles
The story of Pelican isn’t just about distance.
It’s about choosing a different path.
About trusting the process.
About discovering that the biggest change doesn’t happen around you—but within you.
From one ocean to the next, this is what sailing can become.
Not just a voyage.
A transformation.
