FW: Our Ship and Home away from Home

Between the 9th and 21st of August this will be the Home away from Home for 40 Young People (and their Mentors).

Here are some pictures (taken from the internet) to give you an idea of how she (that’s the boat) looks:

Using the following link http://www.adventureundersail.org/docs/Kaliakra2010.pdf you can read the information the crew first saw, when they decide to undertake the voyage.

2010 Sailing Challenge

This blog first appeared in 2009 to enable trainees sailing with AtSea Sail Training aboard Christian Radich to record their thoughts and experiences whilst sailing.

 

For 2010, forty trainees from eight different countries will join the Bulgarian Tall Ship Kaliakra for the North Sea Tall Ships Regatta. Working as a team they will sail and navigate the ship safely from Hartlepool to Amsterdam.

 

Ahead of the voyage participants will be invited to post to the blog, and during the voyage this will be a daily event (if communications allow).

 

Trainees are due to join the ship at 16:00 on the 9th of August in Hartlepool the voyage finishes in Amsterdam on the 21st.
