Sailing Experience Days: Ahoy there, sailor! Welcome aboard the tall ship Gaff Cutter. We hope you’ve found your sea legs, ‘cause it’s time for a swashbuckling four-hour adventure off Dorset’s scenic Jurassic Coast.

Trips depart from Portland Marina and head east towards Weymouth Bay, Osmington Mills, Ringstead Ledge and one of the region’s most photographed and iconic landmarks, Durdle Door. Built by the Dutch in 1930 and originally used to transport cargo between Amsterdam and its North Sea neighbours, Gaff Cutter is an impressive steel-hulled tall ship – the perfect vessel for a day’s fun on the open water! During the voyage, you’ll be encouraged to try your hands at sailing – learning the ropes, so to speak, as you weigh anchor, hoist the main sail and perhaps even take the helm. Then again, if you’d prefer to sit back and enjoy the ride, your experienced skipper and crew will happily take over duties on deck. Together, you’ll glide over the waves before anchoring at a unique picnic spot – so don’t forget to bring a packed lunch!

The four-hour tall ship sailing experience, in Dorset, is a fun activity for budding seaman and nautical families. So, why not push the boat out? Surprise your ship’s captain with an Experience Days gift voucher, today!

Booking experience was smooth and the weather delay of a couple of days was well explained. Rendez vous at the marina worked well and an interesting and friendly selection of customers was well looked after by Jez and crew. We had very light airs but all were invited to join in sett8ng sail and I helmed most of the way to durdle door as no one else volunteered. Street8ng such a large vessel was enjoyable. Owing to the light airs we had to motor back against the headwind. Passed ships Aurora and Arcadia at anchor and we saw one dolphin off the bow of an anchored tanker. Our 4 hour sail was 5.5 hours so extra value for money. Enjoyable and recommended.

A fantastic day out, supported by perfect weather, great scenery and bonus attractions (cruise ships and air/sea rescue practice. Can thoroughly recommend the experience but one does need to pick the weather.
