Sailing used to be an exclusive pastime, but the growth of flotilla holidays in the Mediterranean has made it accessible to everyone. That, coupled with recent Olympic gold medals in sailing and the headline grabbing exploits of Ellen MacArthur, has led to charter companies reporting a twenty-five per cent rise in bookings.
