Volunteer for Maintenance

Maintenance takes place regularly throughout the year

Keen to help out?

Why not join our maintenance teams?

Both Lord Nelson and Tenacious have regular maintenance periods and we are always looking for people who are willing to help.  Enthusiasm is the main requirement and as long as you are willing to lend a hand, then there is a job for you!

We are also looking for people with specialist skills such as engineers, carpenters electricians or riggers.

All volunteers are provided with accommodation on board and have three hearty meals a day, so spending money can be reserved for a drink at the bar on board or ashore.

Maintenance can be carried out in various ports around the country or abroad; here are the current planned dates:

LORD NELSON REFIT

The Jubilee Sailing Trust would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all the volunteers that worked with us on this project and to all the companies that supported us throughout the winters of 2008-9 and 2009-10. The refit was a huge success and as always, we had a willing band of over 150 volunteers who donated anything from a few hours to several weeks of their time to enable the projects to go ahead with minimum labour costs. They donated over a 1000 days to phase 2 of the project, working through a particularly harsh winter. The savings to the Trust, due to their enthusiasm, commitment and hard work is around £80,000.
