Join the crew on one of our 72ft Challenger yachts — famous for having raced around the world as part of the Global Challenge races — at this year’s Southampton Boat Show.

Visitors to Britain’s biggest boating festival can book a ‘Challenger Yacht’ sailing experience with Tall Ships Youth Trust for your chosen date and time here or with us in person on the Marina Bridge pontoon.

Come and find us along the Marina Bridge pontoon and book your experience (ages 12-80), which includes:
– A safety briefing where you’ll be fitted with a life jacket
– Helping the crew to ready the Challenger for leaving the jetty
– Hoisting the sails
– Steering the vessel
– Winching
– Manoeuvres along Southampton Water

You can get involved as much as you like with the crewing of the boat, or you can just enjoy a sail and the scenery!

You can also find out about our all new youth and adult winter voyage programme.
