Join Club Sail on a yacht for a two week cruise from Tenerife via Madeira to Huelva – in the beautiful and unspoilt South West Spain
Final plans are in place for two milebuilding trips from Tenerife to Madeira and Madeira to Huelva (near Cadiz).
Two of our Club class yachts, Stan (a Prima 38) and Agi (a Hanse 400e), are sailing together up to southern Spain. The first leg leaves Tenerife on Friday 26th June for Madeira. After a short sail to get your sea legs, we will make the 300+ mile passage in one go—aiming to arrive in Madeira on the Wednesday.
Madeira is a located in the mid Atlantic ocean. It is one of the remote islands of Portugal with maderia island and Poto Santo Island being the only inhabited islands.
We will have a day to explore other harbours and anchorages on Madeira, before you leave us on the Friday (why not stay the weekend?) or take your berth for the next leg.
The second leg from Madeira to Huelva is planned to leave on Friday 3rd July and cover the 500+ miles to Huelva in about 5-6 days
Huelva is a maritime town between the rivers Anas and Baetis, it was seated on the estuary of the river Luxia, and on the road from the mouth of the Anas to Augusta Emerita.
Christopher Columbus started his voyages to the new world from Huelva – and we will be racing in late August here to La Gomera, in the Canary Islands, in celebration of these voyages.
Our final destination will be a marina adjacent to the Doñana National Park located in the Spanish province of Andalusia, in the provinces of Huelva and Seville, and covers 543 km², of which 135 km² are a protected area. The park is an area of marsh, shallow streams, and sand dunes and a river delta flowing into the Atlantic ocean. The original area was established in 1963 by the World Wildlife Fund and the Spanish government.
With a day to explore the area by sea we will ask you to be ready to leave the yacht on Saturday 11th July.
Both legs include breakfast, lunch and dinner on board the yacht and cost €800 per week. If you book both legs the cost is €1400.

Kuhn Rikon 3344 7.4-Quart Stainless-Steel Pressure Cooker $215.00 Beginning in the 1930s, two successive generations of busy cooks used pressure cookers to prepare family meals. The next generation, with memories of valves dancing and hissing on stovetops, snubbed pressure cookers. Now pressure cookers have come back, those old valves replaced by modern versions that ensure safety while delivering the speed, ease, and nutritional benefits of pressure cooking. Pr… |

Truly: The Love Songs $7.07 Since it contains six tunes that Richie wrote and performed as lead singer of the Commodores, the title for this collection may be technically a little misleading. That said, those who appreciate Richie’s instantly recognizable vocal style are unlikely to complain about the inclusion of such pop standards as “Three Times a Lady,” “Still,” and “Easy.” Maybe it’s the passage of time, but Richie’s s… |

White Squall [VHS] $3.00 It’s a pity this oceangoing adventure wasn’t fully appreciated during its theatrical release in 1996, if only because its climactic storm sequence (hence the movie’s title) was awesome on the big screen and inevitably less impressive on video. Mixed reviews also curtailed its box-office potential, but as you might expect from Ridley Scott–the director of Blade Runner and Thelma & Louise–this is … |

And the Ship Sails On [VHS] $59.99 Federico Fellini’s 1984 And the Ship Sails On is one of the late master’s most fanciful projects, while simultaneously striking one of the most somber notes in the director’s filmography. The year is 1914, the eve of World War I and the coming destruction of Europe’s old, cultured aristocracy, an elite class mourned in many a film from Renoir’s The Grand Illusion to Truffaut’s The Green Room…. |
