Sailing school grows and buys yacht charter firm
FCS principal Charlie Tulloch said bringing Firstaway on board was a natural progression for his business.
‘Our school’s main aim is to train sailors who want to charter yachts and be their own skipper,’ Charlie said. ‘We’re increasingly being asked to refer charter companies and we’ve always recommended Firstaway. When the opportunity came to purchase the company we jumped at it.’
