2nd Brig sails for 1st time

Our second brig - T.S. CAROLINE ALLEN - sailed for the first time on Saturday 1st August. Completed with funding from the People's Millions Lottery Fund she sailed with her sister vessel BOB ALLEN off Cowes on Saturday afternoon. The completion of these two brigs is a major achievement for us but it is also a tribute to the late Bob Allen. He left us in August 1992 and wanted his estate to go to providing 'sail training under square rig for younger cadets'. We now have two brigs that can take 10 young people sailing to carry out that mission.

We Won!

We won the £50,000 grant and are beginning to progress with the project, any offers of help would be much appreciated. Over the last few weeks we have begun to paint the inside of our new boat Caroline Allen. This is only the start, we will keep you up to date as the project progresses. Don’t forget to give us a call if you would like to get involved. 

At present we are compiling our program for the next season. If you are interested in sailing please give us a call or send us an email. We are able to do half days, whole days or trips for special events such as birthdays.
