Dreaming of offshore sailing but lack experience? Maybe even joining one
of the Cruising Rallies and would rather
be your own captain than have to hire one? We
can help!!
Now you can join an experienced Captain
and Crew aboard the sailing yacht 'Sophisticated
Lady' for the adventure of a lifetime!
Discover the thrill of ocean passagemaking and making landfall in the beautiful islands of the Caribbean.
You will discover exactly what it takes to
prepare a boat for offshore passagemaking...
provisioning, watch schedules, meal preparation at
sea, night watches, etc.
This year we are proud to offer 'Sophisticated Lady' for
offshore training with several of the Atlantic Cruising
Rallies! We
have several different packages designed around getting you
the experience you need. You'll be able to
join the yacht in an exotic location to assist
with preparation for offshore passagemaking prior
to departure, offering you the chance to learn more
about what it takes to get a vessel ready for the
challenges of offshore sailing!
This Sailing Adventure gives sailing individuals (and most importantly,
sailing couples!) the chance to gain valuable experience on the ocean, including night sailing, before taking their own boat offshore
or in one of the rallies. The price per person for
a 2 week offshore adventure
is $2500US all-inclusive (excepting departure
and arrival taxes).
Last year 'Sophisticated
Lady' won 3 awards in the Cruising Rally,
including 2nd in class, 1st in Jeanneau overall,
and the Tempest Trophy for assisting with a rescue
at sea! You'll find no shortage of adventure
here... and you'll also find we prefer to use our
sails as much as possible and can help you learn
the art of following weather charts and currents
to maximum advantage... It's all part of the experience!
There are only 6 shared berths available for these Sailing Adventure, so please enquire for more information
and to reserve your space aboard for these fantastic
adventures!! We look forward to hearing from you
and meeting you aboard 'Sophisticated Lady' for
your Caribbean Adventure of a Lifetime!!
