Nova Scotia Sea School Summer Registration

Elizabeth Hall NS Sea School

 

Mar 8, 2016

Since 1994 the Nova Scotia Sea School (Sea School) has been offering youth, ages 11 to 21, adventure experiences that transform how they see themselves, the world around them and their capacity to contribute to our society. By providing participants of all backgrounds with a simple experience of life on a 30’ wooden traditional sailboat youth gain the confidence and awareness to make important decisions about their lives. Sleeping under the stars, living outside, sailing the coast, anchoring in remote coves and inlets, taking a fabulous “unplugged” break away from technology are some of the highlights. Because you are literally “at sea” for the week, you become almost family with your ship mates, as you learn to work together and rely on each other. 

Summer registration is open for 4, 6 and 7 Day Sailing Expeditions.  If this sounds like it might be the right adventure for you, or something that perhaps your children might benefit from, contact the Nova Scotia Sea School at: http://www.seaschool.org or give them a call at (902) 423-7284.

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
