It is vital that you telephone the centre the day before your booking to confirm conditions. Strong winds or rough seas will have an impact on the day, and in such cases the itinerary is subject to change. Duration: Your experience runs for approximately three hours. Please allow some extra time for a possible later return, depending on the tide and weather on the day. Please arrive in good time (ideally few minutes in advance).

Spectators: Spectators are welcome to wave you off from the marina, but won't be able to join you on board. We also offer this experience for two people. Dress Code: You must wear flat, soft and light-soled, non-marking shoes, eg deck shoes or trainers or you wont be permitted aboard. Wear lots of layers, it can get cold out at sea. Bring extra clothes and sun protection. Life-jackets and sailing gear is provided. Guidelines: Restrictions: Minimum age is 16 accompanied by another voucher holding adult and 18 unaccompanied. No weight limit applies. You need to be agile enough to get on and off the boat but don't need any previous sailing experience and non-swimmers are welcome. Other Info:

After a safety briefing on board a 26ft Sigma performance yacht, you are given your sailing gear and lifejacket. Your yachtmaster instructor will introduce you to the basics of sailing, from hoisting the sails to helming and may even teach you some sailing jargon. Depending on conditions, head out into the English Channel for some real open-water cruising, or go for a sightseeing tour along the beautiful Sussex coastline. Choose to take an active part in the sailing or just sit back in the cockpit and let the crew do the hard work while you relax. And once everyone is back on dry land, logbooks can be signed off for those who want to take their sailing further.
