We then route South passing the Isle of May and the World Famous Bass Rock Gannet Colony before setting sail for Eyemouth harbour where we berth and you can step ashore for some well-deserved food & drink or simply transport home, although you may want to stay on board for the next day’s adventure.
All guests are encouraged to learn the “ropes” and take the helm
Ideal for private individuals or groups looking for a bit of an adventure or for corporate group bonding or for those looking to gain sea miles on a large sailing boat in interesting and challenging waters.
