Average rating 4.9
Every cruise is more than a journey - it's memories that last long after you step ashore. Our participants share their stories, emotions and moments that are hard to put into words... but which we try to capture right here.
I thought it would just be a holiday. It was a journey that cleared my soul. Every sunrise on deck reminded me that you can live slower and deeper.

Step into a living piece of maritime history aboard the Maybe, a beautifully restored Class B gaff ketch that has been captivating sailors since its launch in 1929. Famous for competing in the very first Tall Ships Race, the Maybe combines a storied past with a rugged, seaworthy design that makes her the perfect vessel for hands-on sailing adventures. Measuring 24 meters in length, this steel-framed beauty offers an intimate experience where you aren't just a passenger, but a vital member of the crew. Under the expert guidance of four professional sailors, you will learn to hoist the seven sails, take the helm, and navigate the stunning coastlines of the UK, Ireland, and the North Sea. Below deck, the Maybe exudes traditional charm with wooden paneling and a cozy salon where hearty, chef-prepared meals are shared among the 14 guests. Unlike many older training ships, the Maybe offers the comfort of private twin cabins, each featuring its own sink and ample storage, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of hauling lines and sea spray. Whether you are a beginner looking for a "taster" voyage or an experienced sailor aiming to compete in the 2026 Tall Ships Races, the Maybe delivers an authentic, supportive, and exhilarating environment. Book your 2026 voyage today to join the legacy of one of the world’s most resilient and beloved tall ships.
