On Saturday 18 June 2016 'Bessie' will be taking part in the Eddystone Charity Pursuit.
The crew will be Andrew Eccleston, Jenny Tsang and Philip Sambles.
We are all volunteers with the Horizons Plymouth Children's Sailing Charity.
We work with Horizons to help disadvantaged and disabled children from the inner city communities of Plymouth.
Horizons provides learning and educational opportunities that increase self-confidence and improve social and practical skills, through water-based activities that would normally be beyond the means of these children.
Every year we run over 3,000 individual sessions involving hundreds of young people aged 8 to 19 – and everyone is welcome!
To keep our children safe on the water we have to have the best equipment and staff. We need your support to keep doing this important work.
Thank you, Andrew, Jenny and Phillip

'Bessie' is a Dufour 36 Classic and we will sail out to the Eddystone Light from Plymouth, and back again. It's about 26 miles.
