sailing further, together
Do you dream of sailing around the world, cruising the Atlantic or the Mediterranean, while benefiting from the support of an organisation and the dynamics of a fleet? As the owner of a Garcia Yachts you can take part in the rallies organised by the Grand Large Yachting group! Along the way, you'll alternate between official stopovers - some of which are technical - and periods of free sailing. The organisation takes care of many practical aspects, such as administrative formalities, overnight stays in marinas during official stopovers, as well as contacts for operations during technical stopovers (haulout, maintenance, wintering, parts orders, etc.). A unique opportunity to exceed your limits, enhance your sailing experience and take advantage of the solidarity and mutual support within the fleet, all the while benefiting from the support of our expert teams.

Adventure in the heart of the Nordic lands
From the Canaries to Norway, via Madeira and the Azores, Northern Europe and Scandinavia, the Grand Large Yachting Nordic Odyssey offers an original itinerary, far from the classic Atlantic routes. Between high seas, coastal navigation, fjord exploration and canal crossings, each stopover is a new experience, combining an incredible diversity of landscapes and a broad cultural richness.
The first edition of this 10-month rally set off in December 2024, with a winter in the warmth of the Atlantic islands.
