SheSails Weekend Sail July 15-17th 2022 (Boat 1)

A fantastic chance to get out on the water for a fun and social weekend of sailing in the Solent, with a lunch stop at anchor on both days weather permitting. We will stop overnight Saturday in a Marina or on a visitor buoy/pontoon. Saturday night destination will be confirmed nearer the time and will depend on tides and conditions, but will probably be Lymington, Yarmouth, Beaulieu or Chichester Harbour. If possible, and depending on timing and conditions, we may sail Friday evening as well.

No previous sailing experience is required. Everyone who wants to will be given a chance to helm and navigate, with guidance provided if you are a beginner. Over the weekend we will share crew roles and tasks both when we are out sailing and once in the marina e.g. food preparation and cleaning.

The Skipper will either be a SheSails member with an RYA Coastal Skipper qualification or an RYA instructor. There will be 8 people on board and we will be on a 35-37ft boat. Accommodation will be in 3 x shared cabins, with 2 people sleeping in the saloon.

The weekend is on a shared costs basis and your fee includes the boat charter, marina fees, fuel, food and drink. Advance booking and payment of £225 is required. Food and drink for the weekend will be provided, with the exception of Saturday night where we will eat ashore, most likely in a local pub.

Please note that this is a yacht charter event and not a sailing school organised activity. Please read the T&Cs carefully to ensure you understand the implications of this before confirming your interest.

Payment upfront and completion of the booking form is required for this event. Your place will not be confirmed until we receive both.

Please take note of our strict cancellation policy. We are a non profit group and the charter will only take place if we have enough people to cover our costs. If we cannot cover our costs or the event is cancelled by SheSails for any reason, you will be refunded or can have a credit for use against a future event. In ALL other circumstances no refund will be given unless your place can be filled by another SheSails member. We do operate a waiting list, and will try to find a replacement, but this is not guaranteed.
