Always wanted to cross the channel by sailing boat or do something a bit different or exciting? Why not join us and other like minded travellers aboard for this trip to France. You will need a passport and travel documentation that allows you entry to France – and also back into the UK.
If you have been on a yacht before it would help. You do not necessarily need prior sailing experience but you do need a sense of adventure! Being on a yacht is a lot like a caravan that is propelled by the wind. These trips are great fun and all the safety elements are taken care of by a professional experienced Skipper and 1st Mate. We send you a list of what you need to bring and we can supply the specialist wet weather gear (bib trouser / Jacket). If you come to the 24hr staffed marina by car there is plenty of free parking in the marina itself – from London it takes about 1hr 30 – 2hrs total time depending upon train or car.
What do you learn?
Everyone is fully immersed in the sailing and life on board taking part in as much or as little as they wish. You experience and understand about crossing the busy shipping lanes and the all-important collision avoidance methods and techniques including the use of radar. You get to experience sunset at sea, there is a pretty full moon at 98% so it should be a ‘light’ night and you steer under the stars! You will have around 6 night hours of sailing and about 30 daylight hours over the 4 days. Everyone takes turns to steer and trims the sails to the wind – some people get involved in the planning and navigation. ‘Off watch’ some people read, chat or have a nap! We do shout out if we see dolphins though!
