    A warm up trip for our club skippers with a team building and development trip in the Solent.  Skippers please register your interest as soon as possible and we will work out what size yacht to charter once we have rough numbers.

    20.05 Swedish Cruise (Interest confirmation)

    A week cruising on the West Coast of Sweden, chartering from Gothenburg.  An archipelago to explore.

    The date is from Sat 6th June for one week. One yacht is now full & reserved, so there is a crew waiting list for a potential second yacht.  If you are interested sign up quickly; if we get enough people we will try to reserve a second yacht.

    The overall charter cost looks to be around £500 per head excluding travel which you would need to pay for and arrange yourself.  The initial deposit would be around £160 per head and need to be paid almost immediately.
