Thursday the 13th August saw Media Vision South Africa undertake their first team sailing adventure. The team, comprising of captain AJ, first mate Zeke, skipper Brett and deckhands Lauren, David and Frances, took sail, equipped with nothing more than a couple of flimsy jackets on their backs and cold beers in their hands. Sandy decided to hold the fort by staying at the office and fielding calls from the slightly jealous UK office.

The weather was idyllic for a Cape winter’s day and we took off from Simonstown yacht club at a gentle pace eventually finding some light wind quite a way out at sea. The deckhands were roped in to take some of the slack and learnt some of the nautical lingo, such as ‘guy’ and ‘cleat’ in the process.
