The Jubilee Sailing Trust (JST) is pleased to announce that Tenacious will be visiting Jersey again this year. The inbound voyage from Southampton arrives on the 28th May, returning on the 31st May. During its four-day visit to the Island, Tenacious will be open to the public to visit on board on Thursday 29th May between 10am and 2pm, but more excitingly take part as voyage crew in a day sail around Jersey on Friday 30th May.
The day sail provides an excellent opportunity for both individuals to personally participate and businesses to sponsor an individual or individuals to become part of the ship’s crew for the day.
The full day’s sailing programme costs just £125 per person which includes all food and refreshments. During the day, voyage crew will be able to take part in a variety of tasks on board. For those feeling particularly brave, there will be the chance to climb the masts to take a look at the Island from the best viewpoint on the ship. The masts have been adapted so that people with disabilities enjoy the challenge of climbing them.
Tenacious is a 65 metre, purpose-built ship that has been designed specifically to be crewed by teams of both disabled and able-bodied people. Among the many design features which have been integrated into the vessel are flat, wide decks to facilitate access for wheelchair users, lifts between decks for those with limited mobility and a speaking compass to enable blind and visually impaired crew to take the helm.
For those seeking to extended the challenge of tall ship sailing why not join our Inbound or Outbound voyages. Opportunities cost from £449 for 6 full days of adventure.
