Studying: A Level Textiles, going on to the Fashion Retail Academy in London
Voyage: Palma to Gibraltar
Highlights: Amazing dolphin sightings and meeting the America’s Cup teams
“Highlights of my week have included the America’s Cup in Valencia, where we were taken around the Victory Challenge base. We watched the races start from Gipsy Moth and were also lucky enough to stay in the main marina alongside some of the lovely boats.”
“Another favourite time for me has been during night watches where we have seen shooting stars and beautiful sunsets over the horizon.”
“Overall, it has been relaxing and fun with lovely weather throughout. Everyone has got along great. Couldn’t have asked for better company! Lots of laughs. Sailing on Gipsy Moth IV has been a once in a lifetime experience for me and I will take many memories back home.”
