Trainee sailors salute captain and crew
We wish to thank Captain MacSweeney and the crew who taught us navigation skills, chart-reading, how to sail a traditional rigged vessel and gave us an understanding of weather forecasts.
This voyage gave us the opportunity to experience turbulent seas off Mizen Head, Sheeps Head and the Fasnet Rock. Another highlight was climbing the mast or jumping into the seas off Broad Strand or seeing the sun rise over Coolmaine Strand while on the early morning watch.
