⚓ **Offshore Adventure Completed!** 🌊

Today, POC Lily completed her offshore adventure aboard TS Royalist

During her trip, Lily developed a fantastic range of skills, including **navigation, engineering and sailing**. She also had the opportunity to steer the vessel out of anchor and rig the sails while underway — gaining valuable hands-on experience along the way.

Alongside the training, Lily enjoyed shore leave with her new friends, including games on the beach and even taking the opportunity to jump into the sea! 🌊

🐬 **Her highlight of the week?** Watching a pod of dolphins swimming alongside the ship — an unforgettable experience!

POC Lily has now gained her Offshore Seaman qualification and has had a fantastic week full of learning, adventure and new experiences.

Offshore adventures are an amazing opportunity for cadets to develop skills, confidence and friendships while experiencing life at sea. ⚓

**If your cadet is interested in an offshore adventure, please contact the Training Officer for more information.**

RNP Night at Sutton Sea Cadets! A Royal Naval Parade (RNP) is a formal biennial review of a Sea Cadet unit, conducted by the Area Officer or another senior inspecting officer. It gives cadets the opportunity to demonstrate their dress and bearing, drill, training, teamwork and the wider Cadet Experience, while the unit is assessed against Corps standards. It is also an opportunity for supporters and guests to see the unit at its best and celebrate the achievements of its cadets.
