“I loved every minute of it. It was really the people I shared it with that made it as well as the Fairbridge Crew. Thanks for making it so much fun!!” – Roger Parr BDL Liverpool. (A.K.A Trevor)

“I would like to thank the GSB team and Fairbrige crew for yet again another great, fun, eventful and also memorable experience you were all a great bunch!”  - Stuart McCelland BDL Aspatria 

“A big thanks to Fairbridge for allowing us all to have the opportunity to go out on Spirit and to everyone who I met for the first time.  It was a fantastic weekend.” – Mark Brown BFS Edinburgh.

Sailing 85 miles from Greenock to Holy Loch to Port Avadie (Amazing) and back, was a wet windy but truly wonderful experience for all the crew.  The sail captured a glimpse of the beautiful scenery, wildlife and people of Scotland, along with raising over £2,000 for the charity.

A further 2-year sponsorship extension has now been approved by Bibby Line Group and will see a further £400k donated to support the running costs of Spirit until the end of 2013. – Which means we have more opportunity to see new faces aboard the ship in 2012!
