Learning HOW to SAIL | Day ONE
Join Ellie on her 5 day competent crew course with British Offshore Sailing School! DAY ONE!
A short series following my course to becoming competent aboard a sailing yacht!
DAY ONE.
I couldn’t be more grateful for such a fab week, the weather was on point, our skipper Gary was a legend, my co-crew mates were utterly fabulous, @fayecornhill @callyevans_24_ Julia. Onboard a gorgeous Sigma 38 sailing yacht for 5 days, we covered 117 miles, 4 hours of night sailing and consumed a whole load of biscuits.
An unforgettable week of learning, learning, learning. It’s definitely got me even more excited about having Rum Punch ready! Now, when is an acceptable amount of time to pass before I book onto my Day Skipper?!

Sailing Rum Punch
Welcome to Sailing Rum Punch. We are Ben and Ellie, both from the UK, and together we have bought a 1972 Contest 38 sailing boat with big plans to build our dream floating home and navigate the world with her alongside. Though newbies to renovating a boat, we are sharing our DIY refit from the very beginning amongst the crazy chaotic on-the-go lifestyle we lead and with the intention of living a minimalistic and adventurous lifestyle. Join us on our journey as we figure out how to turn our 50 year old boat into our dream floating home.
