Thank you to all the amazing kayaks and sailors that came to enjoy the waters of West Cork this summer. Our doors are now closed we have a busy winter ahead as we get ready for 2023. Here is a small taste of the fun that was had this summer. 😃
Jessy’s Skipper and Yachtmaster Instructor, Niall MacAllister, has left our autumnal shores and headed south – we mean REALLY SOUTH. Niall is currently in Stanley, Falklands, getting Ocean Tramp ready for the Antarctic summer season with Quixote Expeditions. It is always difficult to say goodbye, but the draw to explore is strong. It is truly such a life-changing experience to be there with wildlife that has no fear and the incredible impact of the icy landscape. He is currently servicing the heads, so we don’t really want pictures today!!! So we thought we would share a few Antarctic shots from last year for the moment and look forward to sharing more of his adventures once he is back on deck!
Only one cabin remaining for our autumn series of Irish Sailing training on board Jessy of Adrigole. Bring a friend for €600 each or take the cabin all to yourself for €850. Board 4 October and disembark 8 October.
All meals are included and are responsibly sourced meats or vegetarian. No extra boat, fuel or mooring fees. Explore Bantry Bay and anchor or moor up so somewhere different every night to really learn a wide variety of skills. #competentcrew #dayskipper #bantrybay
