The Pioneer Sailing Trust

the pioneer sailing trust

London

Once it became apparent the complex restoration of Pioneer was possible, the decision was made to set up Pioneer Sailing Trust in 1999. The trust, whose founder trustees were Mary Falk, Charles Harker and Rupert Marks, is a registered charity. From day one practical help and funding has arrived in generous measure from many individuals, organisations and local businesses. Pioneer’s new purpose is to offer young people the challenge of sailing, which often proves to be a life changing experience. Pioneer has accommodation for three qualified crew and twelve trainees. As a powerful and strong sea going vessel, she is ideally suited for day sailing or passage work in the Thames estuary, across the North Sea or the English Channel. Being a crew member highlights and emphasises many vital qualities essential in life and the trust believes these practical and new experiences helps develop young people. The trust also opened Harker’s Yard in 2009 to further its work with training and education in the marine industry and provided opportunities for work experience and apprenticeships in marine engineering and boat building and repair. Pioneer Sailing Trust works closely with life development trusts, training agencies, councils, social services and other organisations devoted to improving the life prospects of young people, many of whom deal with difficult circumstances. Young people often find time at the trust opens new windows of opportunity.

You won’t find any yacht charter business on the South Coast that will work harder to ensure you have a superb sailing experience on the Solent or beyond. We may be a small business, but we’re keen as mustard. Whatever your objectives are, we’re determined to help you meet them while having a load of fun, to boot. You’ll always talk to people who know the business and the boats inside out, and who can make decisions quickly. We’ll also get to know each other; you’ll never be just a booking form to us! Sail Squad is working hard to establish itself as a go-to milebuilding and yacht hire company on the Solent. To do that, we know we have to try harder, do more, be more responsive. But we’re up for it, and our customers can only benefit from such a can-do attitude. Whatever you need, we’ll bust a gut to make it happen – providing it’s safe, and providing it’s legal! We know what it’s like to go through the RYA sailing courses because we remember doing them ourselves. We’re not such salty old seadogs that we can’t remember what it’s like to learn to sail. So when you come milebuilding with us, we’ll be finely attuned to both the theory and practice you need for your next sailing course. Plus, the fact that we’ve chosen to base our yacht hire business on the Solent means we can offer you one of the most well-respected sailing experiences in the world. So if you’re looking for private yacht hire on the Solent (whether bareboat or skippered charter), or milebuilding experience for your RYA sailing qualifications, make sure we’re one of the companies you call. We promise you won’t be disappointed.
