Book a sailing experience with Tiller & Wheel and step back into the age of sail.
Sit back and watch the world go by or get involved with the crew to set the sails or take the helm – you decide how much you’d like to be involved.
What to Expect
- Traditional sailing under canvas
- As much (or as little) hands-on involvement as you like
- Big skies and time away from the noise
- An intimate experience – no more than 12 passengers per sail.
As much of your experience will be under sail as possible, just as it would have been 100 years ago.
T&W offers a range of exclusive sailing experiences for private and public bookings.
Sailing For All
Join us for an Afternoon Tea Cruise, Estuary Explorer or Barge Match Experience
In 2020, T&W recognised that Britain’s maritime heritage was nearing crisis point, with a need to encourage a new generation to experience sailing these fine ships. This led to our Patron supported free sailing programme.
Now, in addition to our exclusive sailing experiences, you can join us for a free introductory Medway River Trip or Learning the Ropes session.
Support the Fleet
If you believe in keeping these vessels alive and accessible, consider joining our Patreon community.
Even a small monthly contribution makes a tangible difference to working heritage.
