Take your sailing and leadership skills to the next level while navigating the Caribbean. Learn that you have what it takes to skipper a boat and lead a team.
This course puts you at the helm – of the boat, the journey, your crew and most of all, your overall experience. Learn basic seamanship, navigation and more as you sail 500 nautical miles past fifteen Caribbean islands. Sail through the night on 80-mile, 15-hour jaunts. Learn and practice theories of risk management, effective leadership, group dynamics, problem solving and decision-making. A large portion of the program lies in the hands of the students themselves. Each student leads a segment, plans passages, maintains a budget and guides discussion.
“The whole trip was beautifully thought out and planned and organized. She was stimulated and excited to learn.” — Jody Guralnick, Aspen, CO
