So, welcome aboard! Let the Barefoot crew share our love of sailing with you!
The boat is a catamaran, so it sits flat on the water when sailing (doesnt lean over) - which is good news if you are a little nervous or unsure.
If you are interested in learning about sailing let us know, you can join in on the fun setting sails, and if the conditions are right they can have a go on the helm.
But the best part is the boat picks you up straight from the beach just step aboard - no dinghy's no crowded wharf.
Suitable all ages young and old, particularly good for young children as boat sits flat on water (very stable and comfortable.
Boarding requires a reasonable physical ability to step up onto boat from beach, there is a boarding platform and a few steps.
Please be aware that beach loading means you will get wet to about calf deep, so remove shoes, roll up your pants and hop aboard!
