Get Offshore! For many cadets, this is their first time on the water for more than 18 months. Hear about the adventures of cadets experiencing offshore taster days as the fleet visited ports around the UK.
“Blown away,” is how Leading Cadet Alex, 16, describes his first view of TS Jack Petchey. “It stood out! It’s probably the biggest ship we’ve seen in Gloucester Docks for a while. I was very impressed by it. Most of us hadn’t been on a ship that big before.”
“It really inspired me, I don’t know what I want to do when I’m older, but maybe that’s it – going offshore as crew, meeting new people, and helping them to enjoy it.” Able Cadet Susie, 17, Gloucester unit.
