Try a family holiday with a difference!
Stuck for ideas to keep the kids happy and occupied during the holidays? How about taking the family on a 5-7 day instructional sailing holiday? We can accommodate up to 5 people on the yacht and, weather & experience permitting, can visit places such as the West Country, France or the Channel Islands. Even if you'd rather just stay local in and around the Solent there's still plenty of places to visit.

Our friendly instructors are there to ensure everyone has a great time and learns as much or as little as they wish - it is your holiday after all !

Spring at Last?
After some cold days out on the water in the early part of the year we have at last seen some warmer weather. The crew on our Competent Crew course last week enjoyed some calm and sunny weather on their trip. A day of safety briefs and sail training was followed by a visit to the Olympic sailing venue at Portland followed by putting into to Weymouth and a perfect downwind sail back to the Solent. Many miles of wonderful cruising enjoyed by all!

In spite of some inclement weather practical courses have started here at Outreach with five happy customers braving the temperatures on a Start Yachting course last weekend. Theory courses are also in full swing including a diesel engine maintenance course on the 11th Feb - still places available if you are quick!

Happy New Year! All of us here at Outreach hope you are keeping up with the resolutions.

Supporting The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust

Outreach Maritime Services are proud to support The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust. Mark, our Chief Instructor, has been involved since the very early days of The Trust and is the longest serving skipper! He has this year decided to pass the baton over to our other instructor - Mark! In addition to Mark, OMS also provide Outreach, our Westerly Sealord yacht, for all the trips throughout the summer. Starting in 2011 we'll be offering discounted training to all the young people introduced to sailing by The Trust should they wish to progress through the RYA training scheme.

Theory course was clear and well presented. Practical course was thoroughly enjoyable, well managed, planned and executed. Mark Lamble managed all aspects of crew instruction in a calm and professional manner at all times. Would recommend this course without hesitiation.

A very pleasurable weekend, great instructor, very happy!

Stefan,

Dear Mark and Francis,

Just a note to say 'Thank You!' - we all had a marvellous time and would very much like to book our Competent Crew course. If there are any sailing opportunities between now and then - we'd really like the practice!

Georgie, Di & Jo
Start Yachting Course 

Excellent training, had a fantastic week. Will definitely come back for Day Skipper. Thanks for a great 'holiday'!

Kerry & Daniel,
Competent Crew Course

I thoroughly enjoyed my first five days of sailing and can't wait to continue. The teaching was fantastic - felt like I was in very safe hands too!

John
Competent Crew Course

Excellent course - although a lot to fit in over 9 days - however I do feel that I have learnt a vast amount despite the time constraints. Mark was excellent & worked extremely hard to help us learn all the content required to pass the exams.

Natasha,
Day Skipper Theory & Practical Course

Just wanted to write a quick thank you to yourself and Mark for a great 5 days completing the competent crew course last week. We both thought that Mark did an excellent job both being great at tuition and at accommodating both myself and Tash. We really couldn't have asked for more.

Regards,
Dave
Competent Crew Course

I wanted to say thanks to yourself and Mark for the great training with Outreach Maritime Services. If I know of anyone looking for any training I will be sending them your way!

Many thanks again

Martyn
ASTO Trainee
