Bessie Ellen Video

If you are lured by the thought of exploring new places under sail, but not quite certain of what to expect,  you might be wondering: Am I the sort of person that goes on a traditional ship sailing holiday?    How close do you get to wildlife?  Will I get to take part in sailing the ship? (The answer to that  is yes, but equally you can sit back and be a passenger.)

In the video shot aboard Bessie Ellen, her owner Nikki Alford talks about Bessie Ellen’s life as a former West Country trading vessel and gives an insight into the kind of experiences that await if you join the crew for a sailing trip on this friendly wooden ship.

Have a look at Bessie Ellen’s website to find out more about sailing on her and see her schedule.
