Life on the Barbary Coast
Overview
Throughout the 4-hour program, students explore maritime history by becoming “sailors” themselves; as they learn the language of the sea, the skills needed to maneuver cargo and load the ship, or the confidence and teamwork to raise each other off the deck in a Bosun’s chair, they become a part of this history.
Time:
10:00am to 2:00pm
Details:
By requiring the students to be active during the program, emphasis is placed on building self-esteem, a sense of responsibility, respect and cooperative learning skills. These skills are not just useful on the vessel or in the classroom, but throughout the students’ entire lives.

Your group can be 20 to 35 students and 4 to 6 adults
Flat fee $1,250 for up to 27 students
