As you sail aboard the Provident, a 1924 Brixham Trawler, you’ll have the opportunity to explore several islands, including Lunga, the Treshnish Islands, and Staffa, with a chance to visit Muck and Canna if the weather permits. While at the islands, you’ll anchor overnight and enjoy the tranquillity of the land after the day’s tourists leave, offering a peaceful and unique experience. All meals are provided on board, from hearty breakfasts to delicious evening meals, ensuring you’ll be well-fed during your adventure. Location The trip departs from Oban, a lively harbour town on the West Coast of Scotland. From here, you’ll set sail to nearby islands, each offering stunning coastal views, wildlife, and rich history. The sailing routes are carefully planned to ensure you experience the best of what the region has to offer. Accommodation The Provident offers four twin cabins, each equipped with USB charging points, LED lighting, and heating. If you're travelling alone, you will typically have your own cabin, but sharing may be an option depending on availability. There is a drying area on board to ensure you’re comfortable, regardless of the weather. Prerequisites No prior sailing experience is needed for this trip. However, participants should be in good general health and be able to handle the physical nature of being on a boat, including moving between cabins and deck areas.

Each person will have a designated space, and the yacht is fitted with all necessary amenities to ensure a restful stay. Bed linen and towels are provided, but you may want to bring a sleeping bag or blanket for extra comfort. ### How do I get to the starting point? You’ll need to arrange your own travel to the departure location, which will be detailed in your booking information. We recommend checking the local transport links or booking a transfer. However, we’re happy to advise on the best ways to reach the port. ### What happens if the weather isn't ideal for sailing? Safety is our top priority. If weather conditions are unsafe for sailing, the skippers will adjust the itinerary accordingly. The trip will still go ahead, but alternative routes or activities may be offered, such as shore excursions or sheltered sailing areas, depending on the circumstances. ### Is this trip suitable for beginners? Absolutely! The trip is designed to accommodate all levels of experience. Whether you are a complete beginner or more experienced, the skippers and crew will tailor the activities to suit your skills. No prior sailing knowledge is required, but a willingness to learn and take part in the activities will enhance your experience. ### Will I be expected to help sail the boat? Yes, all guests are encouraged to get involved with sailing, including helming and setting the sails. It’s a hands-on experience where you can learn the ropes, but you can also relax if you prefer. Our experienced skippers will guide you every step of the way, so don’t worry if you’ve never sailed before. ### Are meals included, and what type of food will be provided? Meals are included, and the food is prepared fresh on board by the crew. Expect hearty, home-cooked meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We also provide snacks throughout the day and cakes for a sweet treat. Dietary requirements can be accommodated, but please inform us in advance of any specific needs. ### Is there Wi-Fi or phone signal on board? There is limited or no phone signal or Wi-Fi while on board, especially when sailing in remote areas. This is to allow you to truly disconnect and enjoy the surroundings. However, there may be some signal when docked or in more populated areas. ### What should I bring with me on the trip? Aside from comfortable clothing for sailing, bring any personal items such as toiletries, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a camera. If you're staying in shared accommodation, consider earplugs or an eye mask for extra comfort. Don’t forget your waterproof gear for when you're on deck.
