Velvet Adventure Sailing wants 3 crew for Velvet Lady, Oyster 55, 17m.
From Plymouth, United Kingdom to La Coruna, Spain.
September 2017 to October 2017.
Sailing across the Bay of Biscay is on the to do list for many yachtsmen. Why, because it has gained itself a fierce reputation for strong winds and big waves and so crossing it safely is a big achievement. This will be our 11th southbound crossing of the Bay of Biscay aboard Velvet Lady. Yes the weather can be rough, we choose carefully when to leave Plymouth, but what better way to experience it than on a good solid 55 foot Oyster. This is a commercial trip on an MCA coded vessel with your professional Skipper and Mate Lin and Richard. Join us in Plymouth on 29th September and disembark La Coruna on 9th October. The cost is £1195 pounds sterling. Full details can be found here, https://www.velvetadventuresailing.com/adventure-sailing-holidays-2017/bay-of-biscay-crossing-plymouth-falmouth-camaret-la-coruna
