Fleet

St Hilda is an ex-tall ship, and is a traditional, beamy, 54 ft wooden (larch on oak) ketch, which was originally built in St Monans in Fife in 1973 as a sail training ship.[2]

Seahorse II is an ex-Norwegian ferry and was built to the highest standard for the Norwegian fjords and life in the high northern latitudes, previously used for winter sailing by the British Royal Navy.

Gemini Explorer is an ex-cruising lifeboat. She entered service at the Clovelly Lifeboat Station on the North Devonshire coast and, after saving 44 lives, was finally retired in 1989.
