Seychelles 2026

Time is drawing near.

A very excited group of 17 members & friends are ready to fly to the Seychelles. The islands are in the Indian Ocean near Africa's mainland. Seychelles are 115 islands N of Madagascar, SE of Ethiopia.

Three Cats 40-45' are waiting for boarding, checkout and provisioning to start on 9/30. Afterguard's Adventure Sailors will try to send images of sailing these amazing islands. Not sure of the internet options as yet.  Will share what we can as we go.

Plan to swim in clear warm waters, snorkel, fish for Yellow fin, snapper and Mahi Mahi on passages between islands. Dan Hui has organized dives in a few spots. Plan to explore the islands for 10 days.  

What's Next?

ASA 104 all women's weekend 9/18-20. Picked the anchorage off Rat Rock. A tiny island in the sunset light. We anchored a few ways till everyone was tired. The exploring by dinghy will have to wait till next trip beyond the San Rafael bridge.

What Charter's new to Afterguard Say

Dan - 

Very nice boat. Very well equipped. Brand new main sail. We sailed as a bare boat. Mary was very accommodating. Anni gave us good instructions on all the operations of the boat. I have sailed many times in SF and knew the area well. The boat performed as expected in the bay.

Dalila 7/26

Mary was easy to communicate with and everything went smoothly. The fleet was in good condition, and we had a great experience overall. We’d be happy to charter with her again!

Dom  7/26

Super easy and kind staff
