SUMMARY:Bob & Elaine Hazell's Overlord Talk 2026
DESCRIPTION:Bob was introduced to the Offshore Cruising Club in 1984\, and his first trip on Overlord was a passage from Brittany to Southampton Water.  He had never had an experience like this before and joined the club.  After a number of other passages he obtained his Yacht-Master Offshore Certificate and was passed out as Skipper.  Elaine joined the club in 1995\, having previously sailed on a sister yacht called Sea Scamp that is 41 ft long. \nSailing Overlord is a very different experience from a normal modern yacht.  She is 58 ft long with tiller steering and an offset propeller.  She was built in Germany in 1936 as part of a fleet of 200 similar yachts. They did not have engines.  The hull is teak on Swedish iron frames and she has been well looked after.  She has 10 berths but today a maximum crew of 9 provides more space.  She has sailed all over Europe\, and one of the biggest advantages is taking a flight to wherever she is\, this year Southern Ireland\, sail to wherever the next crew change has been arranged\, and fly home.  It is therefore a great way to experience harbours and countries that you may never have visited. \nWe will be providing the history of the windfall yachts and then focussing on Overlord and the Offshore Cruising Club.  If you are interested\, it could be a great opportunity to go for a weekend sail\, then decide whether you would like to sail on her again and get involved in the club. \nFood will be available on the night\, so arrive early if you wish to eat beforehand\nand make an evening of it.\nTo book a place on this fascinating talk please click the button below \n \nOnce your Booking Form has been sent you will immediately receive a confirmation/payment email from our booking system with the PYCCS bank account details into which you should pay your fees for this talk. PLEASE NOTE: If you don’t receive this email within 5 minutes\, from sending your booking form\, then please look in your Spam or Junk folders as some email browsers see automated replies from websites as Spam or Junk mail. \n
