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?!
