Adam James joins the Lowestoft-based sail training charity, bringing extensive experience in both sailing and boatbuilding.
Mr James said: "I have been lucky enough to sail most of my life, beginning with a mirror dinghy in Devon."
In his new role, Mr James is eager to engage with schools, and youth and adult groups, to introduce them to life on board.
He said: "I have really enjoyed the sailing trips I’ve done this year both filling in for Charlotte on the Tallships Race to Aberdeen and bringing Excelsior Home from the Baltic."
The 2026 sailing programme will start in spring, with various sails available from Suffolk and participation in The Tall Ships Races 2026.
Mr James said: "I am really looking forward to the amazing sailing schedule we have planned for 2026, especially visiting Norway."
All five-day and longer voyages qualify for the DofE Gold Residential Award.
