Over Easter fourteen Ashore Sailing members, made up three crews and had an enjoyable, if not just a tad cold, five days sailing in the Solent and surrounding seas.

We all sailed matched Oceanis 37’s supplied by Fairview Sailing, with RYA Instructors on each boat offering training from RYA Competent Crew and RYA Day Skipper to RYA Coastal Skipper level

One crew spent the first day having a close quarter boat handling course under the watchful eye of their instructor, Mason, before new Skipper Adam safely navigated them around the Solent and beyond for the next four days.

All boats returned safely to their home port at Hamble Marina on Monday.

Congratulations to all who took part.
