Gipsy Moth has enabled us to offer young people from the Island the chance of a lifetime and the opportunity to sail with Gipsy Moth on one of the legs of her tour. 120 places are available on residential training courses with UKSA and from this 14 young people will be selected to fly out and join Gipsy Moth.
16 year old Matthew Pakes represented the Island on the first leg of Gipsy Moth’s tour between Plymouth and Gibraltar. Matthew’s journey was exciting, challenging and full of adventure – and we are offering more young people from the Island the chance to experience this for themselves.
