Expedition Zero, a new adventure sailing initiative, is planning a groundbreaking expedition through the Northwest Passage in August 2026. Partnering with Wavysail, the voyage aims to set a new standard for sustainable adventure sailing by navigating one of the most challenging sea routes on the planet. Covering over 900 miles from Greenland to Alaska, the expedition will showcase eco-friendly technologies and a minimal environmental footprint.
The expedition yacht will be upcycled using innovative, low-impact, fully recyclable materials and powered by natural elements such as sun, sea, and wind, with zero fossil fuel use. Expedition Zero aims to inspire the maritime industry towards greater sustainability while exploring the last great frontiers of adventure sailing. The voyage through the Northwest Passage, known for its history of exploration and shipwrecks, will provide a unique backdrop for showcasing cutting-edge technologies.
Expedition Zero is seeking skilled sailors and intrepid explorers to join the limited crew spots available for the expedition. Additionally, the organization offers enthusiasts the opportunity to be part of the journey through the Northwest Passage membership club, providing exclusive insight into the yacht’s design and construction phases, sea trials participation, and discounts on future Wavysail adventures. This initiative aims to combine high-adventure sailing with low environmental impact, setting a new standard for responsible and innovative sailing expeditions.
