We are a very friendly and inclusive organisation, we often have guests from 18 up to their mid 70’s and from every corner of the globe. If you have any physical limitations please let us know in advance so we can make any adjustments that would allow you to better enjoy your experience. 

Generally speaking, a basic level of skill will be necessary from a safety point of view. This level will differ depending on which event you are thinking of entering. Feel free to get in touch for a quick chat to discuss your level of experience and see what may be the best fit for you. We’re more than happy to work with people to get them to where they want to be.

There will be a professional skipper and up to 9/11 others on board depending on the boat. The variety of experience will range from competent crew, through to those who are experienced skippers in their own right and everything in between. We are very proud to often have some of the most diverse crews assembled in terms of Age, Gender, Nationality, and many other characteristics.

We do not include flights, transfers, clearance into countries, any meals eaten off the boat (usually 1 per day whilst training), or shore-based accommodation (usually recommended for comfort but we’re happy to help those on a budget), We strongly recommend travel insurance specifically for this type of activity. Wet weather gear is not provided but there are multiple options at different cost points that we are happy to advise on.

We aim to provide a high standard of organisation and instruction on our boats. However, sailing inherently involves certain uncontrollable factors. Weather conditions can vary from strong winds to calm seas and the nature of sailing means operating in close quarters and demanding conditions. Due to these inherent challenges, regular maintenance and repairs are to be expected on board. Since our sailing trips cater to various experiences – ranging from offshore races and mile builders to transatlantic crossings – we encourage you to reach out to us directly with any questions about what to expect. It’s important to understand there are no passengers on board, only teammates. 

We own a 2008 First 40.7 that has had a huge amount of resources invested in her to ensure she is a formidable racing machine whilst maintaining a sensible degree of comfort on board.
