About us

We preserve Cornwall’s maritime heritage by maintaining and sailing working vessels from the days of sail. We work to educate people about our maritime heritage, to train people in the skills associated with sailing, restoration and maintenance, and to share our enjoyment of sailing our incredible boats. We own and operate three historic working boats: Barnabas, Soft Wing and Ellen. We always welcome new people, and it really doesn’t matter how experienced you are – we exist to help people experience sailing working boats.
