Sail Training

[mikebryan]

I would be very interested in some sail training on one of the traditonally rigged sailing vessels. I have A RYA C.S Cert.
Unfortunatally most of the courses I have found are targeted at youth training. I have nothing against kids ( Was one myself many years ago), but would prefer the company of my own age group ( 50- 60).
Anyone had any experience or any recommendations for such a course. I live in Germany so either the UK or Europe is OK.

Thanks

Mike

It's going to be tough as children is where the sail training money is, but give the Jubilee Sailing Trust a call.

Hi Mike
The point of sail training for young people is not so much to train them as sailors but for the learning of confidence, teamwork etc... Many of the ST organisations include adults' cruises in their programmes. If it's a square rigger you want you might consider looking beyond the UK.
Cheers
