Maybe Sailing

From 1 day taster sails, to 4 week expeditions and ocean crossings we have something for everyone. Tall Ship MAYBE is a traditional Dutch sailing ketch, launched in 1933 and was designed for round the world cruising. In recent years she has been completely restored by her current owner and returned to sailing in 2007. Tall Ship MAYBE took part in the first ever Tall Ships Race in 1956. She made a successful return to the Tall Ships Races in 2009 in the Baltic’s and completed a full schedule of Tall Ships Races and Regattas during 2010. During the winter of 2010/2011 ‘Maybe’ underwent further restoration to transform her back to her former glory, sailing with an original gaff rig again for the 2011 sailing season along with almost complete refurbishment below deck. The winter of 2011/2012 we made further improvements to the inside cabins and to gaff the mizzen. Maybe Sailing offers sailing voyages from short sails of 1-4 days to longer sails including taking part in the prestigious Tall Ships Races annually. When ‘Maybe’ is in the UK she is based on the East Coast of Yorkshire but spends several months of the season sailing in European waters. We offer sail training opportunities for trainee crew of all ages but strongly believe in the benefits sail training has as a role in youth development. Our aim is to provide many young people, aged 25 years old and under, with an unforgettable sailing experience where they can develop valuable life skills.

‘Maybe’ has the capacity for 18 crew members on each voyage which includes 4 permanent crew and 14 places for trainee crew members. She has extensive comfortable accommodation below deck which has been newly refurbished. In 2013, MAYBE won the Tall Ships Races overall for Class B!
