Join the tall ship MAYBE in Gosport on October 12th 2019 for an unforgettable 15 day adventure that will see you travel from the United Kingdom to Portugal. You'll be getting hands on with setting the sails, steering the ship, keeping watch and more throughout the voyage.
Crossing an ocean under traditional sail is far from easy. Ocean passages can bring conditions fit for only the boldest adventurers seeking the ultimate challenge.
On a sailing voyage we never use the word itinerary, as skippers will always be aiming for the best sailing and shore landings for the forecast and most idyllic or sheltered anchors and ports. They are as keen as you to include some of the highlights describe, but you have to go with Mother Nature, not fight her.
Join Maybe Sailing on board Tall Ship Maybe for an ocean crossing from the UK to Portugal.

Travel Insurance Is required. Once you have booked and paid for your voyage please ensure that you have appropriate travel insurance.
Maybe Sailing Vessels are covered by third party liability insurance for serious injury or loss of life, but they strongly advise you to take out travel insurance as soon as you book your holiday. Make sure you find travel insurance that gives you financial protection if you must cancel or curtail your holiday, cover loss or damage to baggage, or incur any additional medical or transport costs. If you have your own annual travel insurance or a cover with your credit or debit card, please check your own policy carefully to make sure it covers sailing/ cruising/ yachting for sailing more than 12 miles from shore.
Topsail Insurance offer policies that are tailor-made for tall ship holidays, whether pilot cutter, ketch, lugger or tall ship, and have no restrictions as to how far offshore you can sail, including Antarctica.
