About Program
Unlike our Gap and Winter Term programs in Cuba, our summer voyages allow us to return home to tailor float-plans in the Gulf of Maine that reflect the Ocean Passages commitment to positive social change.
In partnership with a local charter school called Baxter Academy for Technology and Science, we run a two-week sailing voyage on the Gulf Coast of Maine from July 7-21, 2018.
The Science and Sea voyage will focus on sustainable fisheries, exploring our region’s interdependent saltwater ecology and economy. In addition to field studies, you’ll meet professionals working with lobster, salmon, seaweed and oyster farms along the Maine coast.
Aboard our 131-foot schooner, you’ll learn as much about teamwork as navigation. The experience is also terrific preparation for any of our Ocean Passages programs in Cuba!
