Educational Sail: Tall Ship Discovery Sail

Get Active on this Educational Sailing Adventure!

PRIVATE GROUPS:

Ahoy! Join us for an exciting educational adventure aboard Tall Ship Windy! Great Lakes history and maritime tradition come alive from the decks of our floating classroom with Windy’s Tall Ship Discovery Sail (TSDS) for sail training.

This unique, hands-on learning experience is a great way to enjoy physics, history and storytelling while taking an active part in sailing the vessel. Watch as faces light up with excitement as we turn theory into practice, have real fun and are educated along the way.
