In partnership with Ocean Youth Trust Scotland, Headquarters Air Cadets has planned a 7-day expedition on board the 70’ sail training vessel ‘Alba Endeavour’ with the aim of sailing around the Western Isles of Scotland.
The voyage will provide the opportunity for our trainee crew to master the skills necessary to sail and manage the yacht in a stunning and challenging environment and the chance to gain the RYA Competent Crew Certificate.
The voyage will take place under the experienced and watchful eye of the OYT Skipper and the crew together with experienced Air Cadet staff.
