Over a year the yacht Discoverer will sail the breadth of the Atlantic, from the high latitudes and Ice of Antarctica and The Arctic to the sweltering heat and humidity of The Tropics, each leg of this year long journey will face different challenges as successive crews face the uncertainty, dangers and rewards of ocean sailing. An integral part of the expedition is the Leadership Through The Atlantic programme.
This programme will target about one hundred selected young soldiers at the end of their initial army basic training who have never sailed before but who will have a unique opportunity for further personal and leadership development.   They will be joined by some Battlefield casualties from recent operations as they complete their recovery from serious injuries.
