We’re many things, and at our core we are an organization that uses powerful maritime experiences to educate, inspire people to adventure, and celebrate our maritime culture. We do it for our own love of boats, in service to our community and maritime industry, but mostly because regardless of the subject, the sea is the most powerful teacher we know.
Learn new skills or enhance existing ones! Whether seeking a fun activity with friends or a new hobby, our adult classes offer something for everyone.
