Our
Summer Programs
For this Summer, Geronimo will have several sailing programs with up to eight students onboard. On all of our trips, we focus on teaching sailing and navigation skills, while students are fully engaged in a unique experential program on board a 70' ocean going Sailing School Vessel. Students stand watch, navigate, perform sail maneuvers, steer, cook and clean, as they progressively take on more responsibility over the course of their voyage. Our affiliation with several major marine science research organizations create valuable and real opportunities to be involved in marine research. While on board, the participants work with an experienced team of professional sailors and teachers exploring the waters between the Canadian Maritimes and New England. Cruise #1: Newport, Rhode Island to Maine - June 11 to July 14 - Geronimo's summer voyage of 2010 is open to students currently enrolled at St. George's. The participants will sail from Newport, RI and explore the North Western Atlantic and coastal waters. The trip will end in Maine. During the four week course on board GERONIMO, students will be taught a survey course in Oceanography which will include the following topics: Marine Biology, Marine Geology, Meteorology, Navigation and Seamanship. (for current St. George's Students). Summer Programs for Incoming St. George's Students - Dates TBA Contact us for more information on the Geronimo Program. We also offer a one-week long adult only cruise, more details can be found here, or please e-mail us if you are interested at geronimo@stgeorges.edu.
