Life on a sailing voyage

On a sailing voyage we never use the word itinerary, as skippers will always be aiming for the best sailing and shore landings for the forecast and most idyllic or sheltered anchors and ports. They are as keen as you to include some of the highlights describe, but you have to go with Mother Nature, not fight her. The description below is based on what we think might be possible, based on past trips, or experience, but nothing is guaranteed on a sailing voyage. If the following voyage description is not fulfilled for any reason, Maybe Sailing and Maybe Sailing Youth Initiative cannot be held responsible.

 

Join the Blue Clipper team in Portimao as they carry out her 2020 Spring refit.

Spend 9 days in the shipyard de-rigging then re-rigging our beautiful tall ship.

You will learn many new skills or just enjoy using the skills and knowledge you already have. There will be painting, stripping, sanding, priming sealing, varnishing and generally making good.

Warm days working in the sun and pleasant friendly evenings.
