After Sailing on Monday and Kayaking yesterday, the swimmers were climbing today at the Dewerstone.  Lots of sunshine with a gentle breeze to keep the flies away.

Yachting Expedition





This week the Ad Bac students are out on two yachts Sealion and Cornish Air. We left Jupiter Point yesterday and completed some sail training in the the sound before heading to Newton Ferries for the evening. Today we headed out to sea before tacking and heading into Fowey just before 4pm. Good sailing conditions and averaging around 4.5 knots meaning we made good time.
