Set Sail Onboard A Schooner

A tall ship sailing experience for those who love adventure. Enjoy weekends, coastal and offshore voyages in some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. Set sail and leave normal life on land behind for a short while to feel the sun on your face and the wind in your hair.

Our schooner Trinovante has a reputation for a relaxed and friendly atmosphere where the small crew numbers mean everyone plays a full role in sailing the ship.

Each year Trinovante sets sail on a different and unique voyage.

You’ll enjoy good food, wide horizons, vibrant cities, sunsets over quiet anchorages and have the satisfaction in being part of the ships crew that sailed there.

Sailing is a fantastic way to travel, get right off the beaten track, explore and meet people. Arriving on a charismatic schooner you will immediately be welcomed as part of the scene wherever you go.

Let me thank you again for the perfect weekend!
It was fantastic but, unfortunately too short.
All the people I met, the sailing, eating, an excellent mix of activity, training and relaxation, having tea all the time….and some beers in the evening.
This is the way I enjoy sailing.

GeroldSailed On A Taster Weekend

Thanks for a fantastic week Bergen – Trondheim.
It is the skill of a successful host to take a gang of disparate (desperate?) folk and turn them into a group of friends – Well done!
We are thoroughly bitten by the bug and would like to have another go next year

Chris and AlastairSailed In Norway

When we weren’t zooming along at 8 knots there was plenty to keep us occupied, two sightings of dolphin, beautiful, clear starry night skies, perfect for shooting star viewing.

And my favourite thing; phosphorescence, and dancing on it when it was washed up on deck to make it sparkle.
