75 years after D-day: freedom on the Wylde Swan

 

June 16 to June 22, 2019

 

Racing in freedom with the windjammers, clippers and other tallships.

 

75 years after the landing of the allied forces in Normandy, the Wylde Swan will join the Liberty Tallships Regatta. This race of sailing ocean giants goes from the French city of Rouen on the Seine to the Dutch city of Scheveningen.

 

Just a 4-hour drive from the Netherlands you can board the fastest ship of the fleet…After the familiarisation and dividing of watch schedule, your watch will make sure that the Wylde Swan is the first to cross the finish line. At night you swill search under the stars for the lights of the other ships. At daytime when everyone is awake you will learn a lot about persevering, pushing your own boundaries and living in freedom.
