Congratulations to Tim Morgan on obtaining his RYA Yachtmaster qualification.
Tim has been a young volunteer with Pilgrim since we signed him up in 2019 as one of a group of students to join us as volunteer crew. We offered places and training in exchange for recognised qualifications.
Of course in 2020 all plans were hit by Covid but as soon as we could we resumed our programme. Tim has worked on board undertaking regular training as well as study and sailing qualifications. He also crewed as both volunteer and ocassional paid mate over the past few years. He also delivered a short term project to review, refine and draft a major operational policy document for our small charity.
Since his time with us Tim has worked on various other vessels both in terms of refits or crew, but he’s continued to return to Pilgrim regularly to and help with work on winter refits and to deliver some great sailing experiences for guests other volunteers and trainees.
Well done Tim! We look forward to sailing with you again. May you continue to use your experience and knowledge in the world of traditional boats long into the future.
