Embark on a tactical sailing adventure in Plymouth Sound, where historical landmarks are the currency, testing your newly acquired sailing skills. This is a people challenge which will not only test your ability to work together as a team, but also your strategy and decision making under pressure. It's a game of risk versus reward, where sometimes the bold strategy plays out.
A fun strategic game for teams of eight that challenges you to learn new skills, adapt to the changing conditions and make quick decisions before the sand runs out!

Most people will be familiar with our five sensory senses (sight, smell, taste, hear, touch) and the sixth, ‘extrasensory perception’ which is often described as our ‘intuition’ or ‘gut feeling’. For some business leaders having a ‘sixth sense’ is often the difference between success and failure. For many sailors, the same is true and whilst we will use all of our senses to deliver a great performance, sometimes we have to resort to our ‘gut’ feel to make the critical decisions.
During this experience, we take a look at the six senses and their application to creating a culture for success, before heading afloat to put some of our ideas into practice.

At the age of 19, Conrad joined the Ukrainian Whitbread 60 team, Odessa for the Whitbread Round the World Race (now The Ocean Race). It would be his baptism into ocean racing and would set him on a career path following his dreams. It was a difficult time, Ukraine had only recently got it's independence from the former Soviet Union and it's economy was in tatters.
Struggling to stay financially afloat, the team battled leadership issues as well as storms. Unable to speak a common language and with a vastly different culture onboard, it was too be an incredible experience for Conrad who would later get the chance to lead his own team around the world.
Conrad joined the Ukrainian team just two years after competing in the Cadet World Championships in Poland. It was a turbulent time in Eastern Europe after the collapse of the former Soviet Union. Here is an interview with the young Exmouth sailor filmed in Auckland, NZ and in Montevideo, Uruguay just after rounding Cape Horn.
