Membership

We are open for membership to private individuals and corporations who share our purpose. We have been lucky to work with several local business, crafts people, artists and bodies who have helped us to refit, maintain and run our vessel. Members support us by providing expertise, services, funding and donations in kind. Without this generosity and support we would really struggle with achieving our mission.

If you would like to become a member please get in touch. We would love to meet with you to discuss options and create a bespoke membership package.
