UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR KEEN YOUNG SAILORS
TO JOIN THE OYT ( OCEAN YOUTH TRUST SOUTH)
ON THEIR NEXT VOYAGE TO THE CHANNEL ISLANDS
IN AUGUST
Further to yesterday’s news bulletin, we have received the email below from the OYT Office:
I wanted to let you know about an opportunity for young people aged 12-25 to come sailing for a week’s adventure on board our sail training yacht Prolific this summer. There are still spaces available on a few of our summer voyages, and I wondered if you know any young people that might want to take part?
I’ve included a copy of a flyer with more information about the trips. In particular, I would like to draw your attention to the following voyages:
- 7th – 13th July, Brixham – Brixham, £710.
- 3rd – 9th August, Brixham – Guernsey*, £710.
- 30th August – 4th September, Brixham – Southampton, £605.
We also have a voyage which starts in Guernsey:
- 10th – 17th August, Guernsey* – Poole, £815. This is a race against other sail training vessels, and includes the RNLI 200 celebrations (suitable for ages 14-25). For more details visit www.oytsouth.org/astorace
Any of these voyages would also be ideal for DofE Gold Residentials, and young people on board have a likelihood of gaining an RYA Start Yachting or RYA Competent Crew certificate as well. No previous sailing experience is required. You will need a passport to take part in this voyage. Please enquire about bursary funding for young people who can’t afford the full price
