The sailing ship Matthew will again be attending the world gig rowing championships on the Isles of Scilly and we still have a few places left aboard.
We shall be sailing from Penzance on Thursday 3rd May (very early) and returning Monday 7th .
The all inclusive price for the passage and bed and breakfast accommodation on board the ship anchored just off St Marys and transport to and from the Gig Rowing events each day - for spectators and rowers is £400 .. if you just want b and b accommodation, its £50 pp - per night . .

This is a fascinating and unusual way to experience this remarkable event - last year every one who came with us had a fantastic time, despite the windy weather - if the conditions are kinder this year we'll be doing some evening sails and will probably follow some of the races too . . so come aboard for a never to be forgotten experience .
