Sail Experience And Explore Day Trip

 

Ever think about trying sailing or fancy a bit of exploring Scotland’s amazing coastline from the water? Want to know what it’s like to step onboard an ocean racing yacht and slip lines from the marina? Join us onboard Scotland’s premier ocean racing yacht, Taeping, for a day out on our popular day sail in some of Scotland’s most amazing waters. Learn a little bit about what sailing is all about, look out for wildlife or just enjoy the experience.

Joining at Kip Marina, Scotland’s Premier marina (Clyde Coast) , or the North Pier pontoons in Oban (West Coast) we will begin with important familiarisation and safety briefings. Heading out into the local sheltered waters we aim to hoist a sail (or two), switch off the engine and enjoy some time on the water. With our crew on hand to guide you and answer any questions you may have you can get as involved as you wish. Have a go at helming, help the crew to hoist a sail or just sit back and enjoy the experience.
