There will be a maximum of 6 people onboard for each leg, allowing 2 people to be on watch together.
We will carry a sextant, enabling you to practice many of the beneficial navigation techniques rarely covered during weekly courses. Also it gives people wanting to take sites for there Ocean cert many opportunities to do so.
