Welcome to our truly ‘hands on’ sailing holidays and RYA courses on Tall Ships, Gaff Cutters and traditional Ketches all with friendly crew.
Our passions are ships with impact, working boats that capture your heart, traditionally rigged craft that turn heads wherever you see them sailing. Holidays that respect the ocean wildlife and a love of unspoilt sailing locations.
We are based in St Mawes, Cornwall but cover large parts of the world and offer all year round sailing including winter voyages in warmer climes.

Bark Europa - Capetown to Ushuaia Near Cape Horn
Capetown (South Africa) to Ushuaia (Argentina) What a way to travel the Southern Atlantic Ocean! Reaching from the southern most tip of Africa to St Helena and on to Montevideo in Uruguay. Landing on St Helena if the weather permits to explore this historic Island where Napoleon Bonaparte was held prisoner for five years until his death. Follow in the footsteps of the great marine explorers and see the oceans they way they would have done from the deck of square rigged sailing vessel.
During the second half of the voyage to Ushuaia the temperature will drop and sweaters will have to come up again. Cape petrels, white-chinned petrels and albatrosses become our companions now. Albatrosses are well equipped for a permanent stay at sea. Their territory is the open ocean.
The entrance of the Beagle Channel is to be found in between Staten Island and the coast of Argentina. Steep hills with snowy tops will be seen on the Chilean and Argentina shores. Here we will meet the Magellanic Penguin. Before arrival at Ushuaia the ship sails along the little island "Islas de Lobos" full of sea lions and rock cormorants
