Velvet Adventure Sailing wants 2 crew for Velvet Lady, Oyster 55, 17m.

From Kristiansund, Norway to Plymouth, United Kingdom.

September 2018 to September 2018.

NORWAY > SCOTLAND > IRELAND > UK SOUTH COAST 1st Sept to 16th Sept £1525 GBP. This is not for the faint hearted! At this time of year there is a likelihood of wind from the south west, and so we need to allow plenty of time for our passages. If we make fast passage time with fair winds this allows us to make extra stops on the way. Please remember all stops will fit in with our ultimate plan of getting to Plymouth on time. In extreme circumstances, if the wind blows continuously from the south west we may not stop at all!! We start our trip from Kristiansund on the west coast of Norway. After an initial day sail in the sheltered waters of the surrounding Fjords and a night at anchor, we set off for a 450 mile passage across the Norwegian sea towards Cape Wrath. Once around Cape Wrath we look at our progress and if possible make a stop in the Hebrides. Working with the tide we continue our passage southwards towards the Mull of Kintyre and into the Irish Sea, leaving the Isle of Man to port and continuing south towards Ireland. Weather permitting we may have a quick stop in Dublin Bay to sample the Guinness before we continue south around Lands End and into the English Channel. After sailing past Lizard Point, the most southerly point of England we head for our destination Plymouth. https://www.velvetadventuresailing.com/adventure-sailing-holidays-2018/milebuilding-passage-kristiansund-to-plymouth
