Nicke or anyone else who is in the know..
as you all know now my next tour will have my dear old dad in tow(hehehe god help him )
anyway back to the question ,He is a very kean sailor as in 22ft yachts etc ,he has it in his head now that if he comes out to phuket with me what a great idea it would be to do some sailing ,proper sailing not the little beach dingy types, so he is asking me now to try and find a descent company to contact so he can do some sailing , hmmmm i thinks im sure that will be the last thing on his mind butits up to him .
so do any of you know of a Good sailing/charter company ?
i know the best bet is to contact the marina where all the day trip speed boats go, but i prefer recomendations

by the way Nicke have you been keeping up with your diving for our next dive trip?

Hi Eric,

What dates are you coming out. The Kings Cup regatta is in Dec however I have some knowledge of the local scene so let me know the dates and I will check into it for you. The are a couple of marinas on the island where you can look into charters or just crewing on a boat.

I'm just starting to look myself.

Cheers

Hi Eric.

I dont know anything about the sailing/marine scene in Phuket. I will talk to my friend in Merlin Divers and maybe do some afternoon divetrips outside Kamala Beach, just to gain experience. I visited a small wreck outside Kamala before.

Hi Urtheman,

How did you get on with your King's Cup Research ?
Do you know of any boats looking for crew ?

Cheers
