How to Join the Indie Sky crew

---

You don’t grow on vacation. You grow when you take on something that scares you a little—and changes you a lot. That’s Misogi.

Choose your expedition based on the skills you want to develop and the edges you’re ready to push. These aren’t cookie-cutter trips. They’re limited-crew experiences designed to challenge you, train you, and shift how you see the world—and yourself.

Spots are few. Most people talk about doing something like this someday. A few just do it.

Ready for a real Misogi?

Most people never do anything that scares them—in a good way. This is your chance to change that. Choose an expedition that pushes your edge, tell us what seamanship or adventure skills you want to develop, and start living a story you'll actually want to tell.

We only take a handful of crew on each passage. Every spot is earned, and every team is carefully curated for chemistry, mindset, and mission. If you're serious about growth—and excited to train, contribute, and stretch—we want to hear from you.

Send us an email and tell us:

• Which expedition you're drawn to
   
• A Misogi idea you’ve been kicking around
   
• Why you think you'd be a good fit for the SV Indie Sky crew
   

We review every inquiry personally and follow up with a short video call. It's our way of protecting the crew culture—and helping you find something that just might change your life.

We take crew selection seriously—because We take YOU seriously.

We invest a huge amount of time, energy, and resources into each expedition, and even more into the crew/people who make it possible. After thousands of hours spent in close quarters—on both boats and planes—we’ve learned how powerful (and how fragile) crew dynamics can be. That’s why we put real thought into building teams where trust, challenge, and support coexist.

This isn’t a packaged tour. It’s a curated, life-changing experience designed to push edges and create stories you’ll carry for the rest of your life.

Once we receive your email expressing interest, we’ll review it and schedule a short video call. It’s our chance to hear about your goals, your experience, and what kind of Misogi you’re looking for. It’s also how we make sure the vibe is right—for you and for the crew you might soon call family.

Spots are limited and we turn down more people than we accept. But if you’re ready for something real, this might be the beginning of the best decision you’ve made in years.
