The company started teaching navigation as a side business since 2009 before it developed into a profitable Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) running three boats during the season and two over the winter. The company's offering, 'Round Britain' cruise, won the 'Sailing Today Cruise of the Year' award in 2016 and led to PS garnering £142,500 worth of revenue within the first three years. PS will use the investment to promote the brand and increase capacity for the race, cruises and training through the purchasing of more vessels. It also plans to introduce ‘The Capitals Race', a yacht race around the UK, in 2021.
