Swiftsure Advanced / Yachtmaster Adventure

Join our Van Isle 360  race crew for the 2011 Swiftsure race and experience an outstanding adventure.  If you have ever wanted to live outdoors for 36 hours eating and sleeping on the side deck of a race boat then this is your chance.  We will be sailing our Vic Maui winner Turicum in the 2011 Swiftsure International Yacht race and have room for 2 students to join us. 

The course is 6 days in length and will involve taking Turicum from Vancouver to Victoria, setting up for the race, enduring a Swiftsure race, and then bringing the boat back to Vancouver.  Students will be taking part in Navigation (day and night), spinnaker work, trimming, helming and lots of other jobs around the boat.

We will be supplying PFD, harness, strobe, and whistle.  You will need to have good wet weather gear, flashlight with red lens and knife.

Cost $995.00 all inclusive -- includes ticket to dockside facilities but not shore meals.
