A huge sailing ship has docked in Cardiff Bay and is offering a taster to the public of what life at sea is like before it departs for Liverpool. The S.V. Tenacious, which is owned and operated by the Jubilee Sailing Trust (JST), is currently the only sea-going tall ship in the world that can be sailed by a mixed ability crew, including disabled people, those with mental health conditions or long-term ill-health issues. The public has the opportunity to join them on a day sail in the Bristol Channel this Sunday.
Launched in February 2000, Tenacious is open to people from all backgrounds and offers a fully immersive sailing experience that is adapted to create an accessible environment for its diverse crew. Its mission aims to deliver a positive impact on those facing long-term health issues, loneliness, physical and mental impairments, and people dealing with significant challenges or changes in their lives.
