Voyage Description

 

Photographers Choice Voyage:

See Classic Yacht Racing Up Close

 

The Pendennis Cup for the Big Classics

We are lucky in Falmouth to have world renowned builders and Restorers 'Pendennis of Falmouth UK'  Shipyard on our doorstep. They specialise in the big super yachts and classics that are usually found in the South of France, Newport RI, Caribbean and other jet set locations. Often the sponsors of prestigious events overseas, Port Pendennis launched their first event last year for classic yachts over 12m in 2008.

This is the second year of the Pendennis Cup, which is now established on the Super Yacht and Classics World calendar of events and will be a marine photographers dream.

This 3 day voyage has just been added, so if you have a group who wants to charter Eve for the event, please ring us before we start to take individual bookings.

Plenty of Close Sailing Action for Us Too

Join us on local pilot cutter Eve of St Mawes for 3 days, and enjoy both the physical sailing and a close up view of the spectaclar racing. Block and tackle sailing on Eve is much the same strenuous style as a classic yacht, but on a much smaller scale. In Falmouth Harbour and Bay it is relatively easy to sail Eve  into good postions to take photos of racing events - something we have done many times, but as guest crew you will have to abandon your cameras from time to time to manuouvre Eve or trim sails.

 The world's marine photographers and good local amateurs will be out on the water with their big zoom lenses, so we want Eve to look spectacular too, even if she is not racing. 

At the end of the day we can sneak off to one of our favourite anchorages and enjoy a few glasses of wine and fresh cooked food as the sun sets.

All Star Cast of Classics

Last years line up was pretty high profile, but Port Pendennis are working hard with two other large classic yacht regatta events in Cowes to make sure 2010 is even better.

There has been interest so far from an all star cast:

 Mariquita

Mariette

Altair

Adix - 65m and 460 ton

The Lady Anne

Elena - The new Herreshoff Schooner

Velacarina,

Atalante 

Lutine - a local favourite

For more information on the event itself and some great photos see www.thependenniscup.com 

or local photographer Tony Hopewell's gallery for last years event.

 

Local Pilot Cutter Welcomes the Fleet

We always like to fly the flag a bit in our home port when other beautiful boats or tall ships visit. Eve will also be thrilled to be back in her own home waters after a 4 weeks summer expedition to Brittany.

We paint our pilot cutter Eve of St Mawes dazzling blue to match the Cornish seascape. Artists have been drawn to the sea, rugged coastline and the famous light quality in the far west for centuries. Eves turquoise blue decks and hull seems to help get everybody in the holiday mood too. On the edge of the Atlantic Ocean we have our share of wild grey days, but they just seem to make the achingly beautiful blue sky / deep blue sea days extra special.

 Founders of Classic Sailing Adam and Debbie based the company in St Mawes because we felt Cornwall and the Scillies was the best cruising ground in the world. We now promote sailing holidays in many far flung destinations but a flat water blast along the South Cornwall coast in a crystal clear north westerly takes some beating.

 

Healthy Exercise & Environmentally Friendly

Traditional Sailing boats like Eve are powered by the wind, but to harness it requires quite a bit of satisfying physical effort and teamwork. There are no winches on board except the antique brass handled windlass, so you soon get to know your fellow guests as you haul on blocks and tackles. Sometimes we glide effortlessly through the water with 14 tons of oak and larch propelled by the wind or tide. If we get a lively force 5 after several tacking manoeuvres with all 3 jibs up,  trying to keep out the way of 460 tons of classic yacht like Adix bearing down us in a brisk summer gale you might begin to wish you had been to the gym more often. Its unlikely you’ll go home thinner (e.g. creme brulee, clotted cream, Lamb with camenbert, rosemary, flageolet bean and red wine) but we can guarentee you will leave looking a lot healthier and either sun tanned, or windswept and interesting. There is plenty of conversation, but even on a 38ft deck you can find a corner for quiet contemplation. For some strange reason, everyone seems to sleep very well on board cocooned safely amongst Eve’s timber curves.

World Class Racing in a Marine Nature Reserve

Falmouth is nothing like Cowes. This event is during Falmouth Classics Week so there will be plenty of boats out on the water, but we can still find places to get away from it all. The seals will still be back in their sea caves off St Anthony lighthouse at their peak breeding time, or out on Black Rock - watching the rich men's yachts with total indifference.

The remoteness of the Cornish coast this far west bring their own special reward to those who travel with us: Starry nights with no street lights; ocean sunsets, isolated lighthouses and tiny fishing harbours; cliffs sculptured by pounding winter gales; almost tropical white sands with sparkling mica sticking to your toes; woodlands stunted by the wind but with trees adorned with lichen (a sure sign of unpolluted air) and lush ferns and springs along the many coastal footpaths.

The Gulf Stream provides unexpected sightings of turtles, sunfish and more regular visits by dolphins (common, bottlenose and risso’s dolphin), porpoises, whales and giant basking sharks. Gales often bring in wheeling gannets, tiny storm petrels, guillemots, razorbills and even puffins.

The Fal and Helford Estuaries are designated as Special Areas of Marine Interest. Breeding seals hide in sea caves and deep zawns. The drowned river valleys (called rias) have dense oak woodlands with branches sweeping down to deep green waters. At low tide the mudflats are home to egrets, curlews, oystercatchers and leggy herons—all the birds that go screech. At night you hear owls hooting in the moonlight, and a few guests have seen elusive otters in the early morning mists.


 

 

 

 

Join at 3pm on St Mawes Quay.

All itineraries are subject to the weather and the skippers decision.
 

Day One
 

Meet on St Mawes Quay where all the ferries from Falmouth arrive. If the tide is in Eve will be tucked in the corner of the Quay just in front of the Ferry Steps. If the tide is out you will row our pilot cutter tender No 8 out ot Eve.

Once on board a safety and facility briefing will be given. Very soon you will be hoisting sails and getting under way.
The objective for the first afternnon / evening  is get you to see how it feels to sail on Eve and get to somewhere not in St Mawes for the first night onboard. It will not be far away and the idea is for it to be sheltered and scenic and in time for a freshly cooked supper. The area is bounded by the Fal and Helford Estuaries for day one.

Day Two and Three

There will be Classic yacht racing each day of this voyage as part of Pendennis Cup. Eve is not racing so we can enjoy the best of both worlds: Sail near the fleet without the stress of competing with professional sailing crews, but also be able to escape once you can no longer bear to look at acres of cream canvas sails wizzing past.... or are just need to relax, lie down and bond with our pretty little boat somewhere beautiful.

Once the full programme has been announced we will expand on this itinerary, but the aim of the voyage is to enjoy the racing spectacle on these two days for some of the day, and also go for less frenetic sailing along either the unspoilt Roseland coast towards the Dodman & Fowey, or South West towards Helford River, Coverack and Cadgewith. See our typical 3 day voyages for more on the South Cornwall coast.

Day Four

On the last morning we make sure you are well fed before putting you ashore in St Mawes by 10am.

 

St Mawes

Joining or leaving point.

Assemble towards the end of St Mawes Quay. There is only one quay right in the centre of the village. If the tide is in you will be able to board directly on to Eve of St Mawes or Annabel J. If there is not enough tide you will be taken out to your pilot cutter by dinghy.

Getting to or from your port.

Ferry is the best way. Contact St Mawes Ferry on 01872 861 911 or 07855 438 674 http://www.kingharryscornwall.co.uk/ferries Ferries are hourly in winter and three per hour in the summer.

Train

To get to St Mawes Ferry catch the train to the “Falmouth The Dell” Station which is on the branch line from Truro. Trains come into Cornwall to Truro from many parts of the UK. http://www.raileasy.co.uk

“The Dell” is ten minutes walk from Customs House Quay where one of three ferries runs to St Mawes in the summer. In the winter it is about another five minutes walk to the Prince of Wales Pier.

Bus and Coach

First Group run a regular service from Truro Bus Station a twenty minute walk from the Railway Station.  http://www.firstgroup.com/ukbus/southwest/devon/home/index.php

Service No 50 - Tel 0871 200 2233 

Plane

Newquay Airport (NQY) is about 40 miles away and about £55 taxi fare.

Taxi - You can book a local taxi on 01326 279 042 or 07971 104 909 ask for Graham.

Flights currently from London Gatwick, London City Airport, Belfast City, Durham, Edinburgh, Leeds – Bradford, Manchester, Stansted. See http://www.flightmapping.com/maps/UKIreland 

Road

The A30 is the best route into Cornwall for St Mawes – if you follow a Sat Nav you will probably be taken via King Harry Car Ferry which is not the quickest route but is worth doing for the experience.

The best way is to leave the A30 at Fraddon and follow the B3275 until it meets the A390 where you turn left for a little way back towards St Austell. Then follow the signs to the right for the A3078 which ends in St Mawes. 

Parking

There are two car parks in St Mawes both trouble free and requiring coins.

St Mawes Quay Car Park is very convenient as it is where you join your voyage but is a little more expensive.

St Mawes Central Car Park run by the St Just in Roseland Parish Council at about £18.00 for 6 days is recommended. It is just a minute walk from the Quay. 

History

St Mawes has a beautiful Tudor Castle built at King Henry 8th directions to be half of the Castles that protected the Fal from the Spanish. The Castle is unique in being in the shape of a clover leaf without any later spoiling additions. It was in constant military usage from 1568 to 1918 when it was handed over to what is now English Heritage.

The artist William Turner made St Mawes famous by painting a scene of the fishing harbour with the Castle on the hill behind, very Italianette,  http://www.tate.org.uk/servlet/ViewWork?workid=14744&tabview=image

 St Mawes was the main port for Falmouth Pilot Boats and is still an active fishing village.

Eve of St Mawes was launched new in 1997

Eve of St Mawes lots of information pdf

Eve owes her heritage to the pilot Cutters of the Isles of Scilly. Rugged and versatile craft built to withstand the rigours of the Western Approaches in comfort and safety; these little ships were fast, weatherly and immensely strong.

Built in 1996 by Luke Powell, many people mistake Eve for an old boat; such is the sense of history within her solid new timbers. Constructed entirely traditionally from the best materials available, Eve was built to last. She has been admired, photographed and written about countless times. 

" Nobody would have guessed this as a brand new vessel. The feeling of history inherent in theses vessels was present in Eve" Classic Boat Magazine article on Eve of St Mawes 1997  

 

Voyage Style

A hard working and plucky ship earning her keep, Eve offers block and tackle sailing on an intimate scale. On deck you have a boat only 38’ long that beginners can throw around easily for RYA teaching, but the beauty of a bowsprit is that she can also spread her wings.

Under full canvas from overhanging boom to bowsprit cap she becomes a 51’ cutter – able to set 5 sails, keep experienced sailors very busy and create quite a spectacle around the small ports and harbours of Cornwall, Brittany and the Scillies.

Eve is large enough to accommodate 6 in comfort and carry enough resources to sail independently of marinas, yet small enough to do some serious creek crawling. She fits perfectly into the secluded anchorages and out of the way corners of her playground.

Leaving only the sparkling wake behind her makes you realise the full potential of traditional boats like Eve of St Mawes and the ethical forces behind them. 

"Eve is a beautiful boat, outside and in, and the all wood construction adds a charm distinctly lacking in most modern boats - real character " - Rob. 

 

Whole Boat Prices

6 go for the price of 5 on any available voyage in Eve's published programme.

Whole boat 6 days normal voyage £3400

Whole boat 6 days special event voyage £3900
