  • Learn about sailing in an informal atmosphere from an expert skipper
  • The freedom of an afternoon sailing on open water
  • Put theory into practice as an active member of the crew...
  • ...or just relax on deck and enjoy the view
  • Includes afternoon tea on board

Ahoy there me hearties! Splice the main brace, shiver me timbers and other such nautical nonsense... there'll be none of that on this experience, which offers an introduction to sailing in a friendly and informal atmosphere. It's great fun - exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and the best way to experience the beauty and freedom of the open sea. After coffee, biscuits and a safety briefing, your Yachtmaster skipper will introduce you to the basics of sailing and in no time at all you'll be out at sea, either on the Brighton or Southampton Water. If you're feeling energetic you can put theory into practice and take an active part in the afternoon's sailing, but if you'd rather you can just sit back in the cockpit and let the crew do the hard work while you relax and enjoy an afternoon at sea. You'll also have afternoon tea on board. All in all a very civilised approach to a wonderful pastime.

Locations:

Southampton, Hampshire; Brighton, East Sussex

Spectators: Spectators are welcome to wave you off from the marina, but won't be able to join you on board.
Dress Code: Dress warmly and wear flat, soft-soled shoes, e.g. deck shoes or trainers. Wear lots of layers, as even in summer it can get cold out at sea. Bring an anorak, lip balm and sunblock. Life-jackets will be provided.
