TALL SHIPS ADVENTURE

Equipping youth for the future through sail training adventures.

LEARN TO SAIL A TALL SHIP

Experience a unique sail training experience with a tall ship adventure!

Stepping aboard as trainees, youth learn to operate the ships alongside the crew, truly becoming crew themselves. Youth take the helm, learn to chart a course, haul lines, climb aloft to furl sails, and complete activities around the galley and ship maintenance.  They increase self-confidence and resilience while having the time of their lives!  Working as a team they learn to overcome real-life challenges.

SHIP LIFE GALLERY

 I learned very many important things that will help me in life.  The first thing I learned is teamwork. I discovered how important it is to have teamwork aboard the ship and how much a crew matters to the captain when helming such a tall ship. The second thing I learned was responsibility. As I got more experienced, I was given more important tasks. I learned how to be a leader and make good decisions. Another thing I learnt how to handle challenges. Life on ship was sometimes hard because of the weather and other problems. I learned to deal with them and not give up easily. I also got to meet people from all over the world. Learning about Myself. Living with different people made me understand myself better. I feel more confident and aware of my strengths and weaknesses. And lastly problem-solving. The ship taught me how to find creative solutions to problems.
