mariners sailign on the Maine Coast

Mariners Sail (ages 14–17, Three-Week)
Spend three weeks sailing and rowing the spectacular coast of Maine from Wiscasset to Mount Desert Island and beyond, camping on islands along the way. The natural history of the coast and intertidal regions, as well as the maritime history of the islands, are the heart of this adventure. You'll explore and camp on islands along the way.

Renewable Energy Sail (ages 13–15, One-Week)
Join us for 8 days of fun, sailing, science, and camping as we learn about climate change and study the sunshine and wind that we use to make our electricity and cook our food. Participants spend the first few days at Chewonki, where they build personal photovoltaic modules to charge their batteries and a solar cooker, both of which they take home. We then head off for a three-day sail along the Maine Coast where we use our skills and equipment for learning and adventure.
