Sail trainees arrive in Kristiansand

July 29th 2010

Ten sail trainees from Shetland, who set sail early Tuesday morning onboard the Swan, have now arrived in Kristiansand to join the start of the second race of the Tall Ships Races.

Arriving at Kristiansand at 9am this morning, they have had a safe journey across the North Sea aided by light winds.  The Swan crew and trainees plan to attend an opening ceremony for the Tall Ships Races at Kristiansand today. 

Please keep checking back for more information and updates on their experiences here or on our Facebook page.
