This summer we will be racing in the Falmouth regatta so we’ll be taking one of our Reflex 38’s west for these events. We’re offering this passage as an opportunity for crew to spend a few days cruising and mile building in the West country. It’ll be a leisurely sail with chances to eat and explore ashore.
A proper mile-builder with a twist, you know where you’re starting and where you’ll finish, but everything in between is up to the crew.
We'll leave Port Hamble, into the Solent and head out of the Western Approaches towards the Jurassic Coast. As a crew we'll decide on what stopovers take our fancy en route.
After a few days of coastal hopping, we'll land in the stunning Falmouth.
4.8/5•62 ReviewsAt LSS we are all about creating cracking experiences to be shared by a growing community of seafaring adventurers! Whether it is exploring the Caribbean Islands, racing around the Fastnet Rock, learning what on earth all this sailing malarky is on about, or just watching the sun go down with a cold beer/gin/wine. Sailing is an excellent facilitator of all of these. LSS was conceived in 2014, by our founder Ruaraidh Plummer. Inspired by instructing hundreds of Yacht and Dinghy training courses and seeing how the majority of students rarely put it into practice before forgetting everything. After teaching dinghy sailing in Vassiliki for 6 years and seeing how receptive people are to learning in a friendly environment, we’ve set out to help sailors learn from the ground up. LSS merged with Equinox Sailing in 2017 and was reborn from the success of this partnership in 2019, to better serve our community.
LSS have a knack for bringing in excellent instructors to run their certificated courses. They’re friendly and approachable, but also bring real depth of knowledge backed up by broad, real-world sailing experience.
