Family Voyage Information

An introduction to sailing for the family

This is the perfect introduction to sailing for families. Join us on our 62ft Catamaran for a sail in the Solent and have a weekend to remember!

Whether you want to take over the whole boat (up to 8 people) or join another family and book just one of the four cabins (sleeps 2), this is a great mini adventure for all ages to enjoy together.*
