Experience the adventure of sailing aboard a tall ship!
On board our tall ship, seamanship is practised and cultivated on a daily basis. To keep traditional seamanship alive, we make it easier for teenagers and young adults to access sail training on board the Eye of the Wind. As a voyage participant aged between 16 and 25, you can sail with us at half the regular price on request. Of course, as a crew member in this age group, the same principle applies to you as to all other guests on board: your active participation in the daily routine on board and in sailing operations is always voluntary. You are not obliged to help out, especially strenuous activities such as climbing in the rigging are always carried out under the guidance of the regular crew and taking into account your physical abilities, your current state of health and your daily form!
and a valuable experience for life!
Our international crew consists of trained sailors aged between approximately 20 and 40. The atmosphere on board is relaxed and friendly, and teamwork is not just a word here. Young people under the age of 18 can only take part in a sailing trip if accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Would you like to discover the world of traditional sailing ships and meet interesting people, and explore distant destinations with the Eye of the Wind? Do you have any questions about life and daily routines on board? Are you still unsure whether a long transfer trip or a short Baltic Sea trip is the right choice for you? – Contact us, we will be happy to advise you and also give you tips on planning your individual trip, including arrival and departure.
Would you like to participate in more than just a single trip and stay on board for a longer period of approximately 1.5 to 3 months? Then apply to be a trainee and support the regular crew in all activities related to sailing, manoeuvring and maintaining the ship.
If there is high demand for trainee positions, there is also the option of sailing as an additional (paying) trainee – in this case, you only pay a small daily rate for your meals, but not the usual travel price.
