Places for trainees older than 25 at request. You will step on board on the Oosterschelde for the Tall Ships Races – Race 1 Sunderland – Esbjerg. On board you participate in the daily working of the ship alongside professional seamen: standing lookout, manning the helm, helping in the galley, hoisting sail and voluntarily have the chance to climb the rigging/mast. We will probably arrive in the evening on the 17th of July in the harbour of Esbjerg. On the 19th of July after breakfast we will say goodbye to the ship, crew and each other. Open for all ages, minimum age 15 years. Important: The Crew Party, Parade, award giving ceremony, etc. take place later on the 19th so if you want to participate in those envets the Oosterschelde has reserved a hostel for you in the middle of the town.
