Welcome!
We are Natasha and Rachel Lambert: sisters, sailors, and adventurers. We both thrive on the water, and thanks to our dad, Gary, Natasha's dreams of sailing are a reality. He designed and adapted a boat using his 'Sip-Puff' technology, giving her complete control of the helm and sheets using her breath despite having cerebral palsy. So far we've tackled numerous expeditions, including extensive trips around the UK and our biggest being an Atlantic crossing in 2020, which was captured in the BBC documentary "the girl who sails with her breath" now on Youtube. We hope to inspire you to push your limits and show you what can be possible with determination and teamwork. Explore our site to discover more about our adventures!
Our documentary
The latest:
This November (2026) we intend to sail 3000 nautical miles across the Atlantic again. Leaving Gran Canaria on the 8th sailing to Sao Vincente and finishing in Grenada.
We will cross in Natasha's nautitech 46' 'Blown Away' which is fully adapted to be skippered by Natasha and for her to live comfortably at sea for several weeks at a time.
This will be our first expedition since losing our mum earlier this year. This will be more than an ocean crossing it will be her legacy. It's sure to be an emotional rollercoaster but one full of incredible experiences.
We are also hoping to raise £30,000 for 3 charities: the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust, RNLI and Calvert Lakes. All of which are very close to our hearts. Any support is greatly appreciated! Our JustGiving page is:
