Lucky prize winners enjoy Douglas Stafford sailing day
By Jamie White – Head of Communications
A sailing day donated by Douglas Stafford to Kia UK for a charity raffle has been enjoyed by its winners.
Every Christmas, Kia UK – valued clients of Douglas Stafford – hold a raffle at their Christmas Party to raise money for the automotive charity BEN.
The lucky winner was After Sales Regional Business Manager, Rob Brown, who chose to take his wife Tracy, and friends, John and Sharon along with him for the day, on board Lady Diane.
The group arrived at Haslar Marina, where they met Douglas Stafford Client Relations Manager, Madelaine Cook and the skipper for the day.
After a short safety brief and fitting of the lifejackets, everyone boarded the 40ft Beneteau yacht and prepared to set sail in the Solent.
Shortly after leaving the marina, the crew raised the main sail and enjoyed some sailing on their way to the Isle of Wight, where the yacht moored in East Cowes so the group could enjoy lunch at the Folly Inn.
Rob said: “We moored up and got the River Taxi across to the Folly, and as the clouds had cleared we sat outside and enjoyed a lovely lunch washed down with the local brew or two.”
After lunch, the crew made their way back and we were able to enjoy some more sailing and everyone had a turn at the helm.
Rob added: “Madelaine and Lee the skipper, kept us engaged and informed of every aspect of the experience and we would like to thank them for making the day such an enjoyable one. I must also say thank you to Douglas Stafford for making the day possible in the first place.”
