*No places available anymore*Get your duffel bag ready and set sail for Sail Antwerp with the Sail Training Yacht Tomidi. As a Windseeker you’ll be actively involved with all aspects of sailing the ship during Race 1 of the Tall Ships Races 2016. Keep the lookout while you’re on watch, take the helm, set and trim the sails, and help keep the Tomidi shipshape. Your Journey will take you across the Northsea each day more southly. Meanwhile you’ll make new friends with your fellow Windseekers as you share adventures and experiences. By the time you arrive in Lisbon you will be a formidable team, ready for anything! And your arrival in Lisbon has a bonus: Sail Lisbon 2016, with its many festivities like crewactivities, crewparade and crewparty. Open to Windseekers from all ages, minimum age 18 years.
This city in Belgium is the capital of Antwerp province. With a population of 510,610 it is the most populous city in Belgium. Its metropolitan area houses around 1,200,000 people. Antwerp is on the River Scheldt, linked to the North Sea by the Westerschelde estuary. The Port of Antwerp is one of the biggest in the world, ranking third in Europe and within the top 20 globally. There is a theory about the name Antwerp: “The wharf where ships berth”.
Lisbon has a long and varied history as a major trading hub, much of which is still visible in the old city centre. Discover Alfama, the old quarters with its many old alleys, steps and the Lisbon Cathedral. The famous tram line 28 will get you there – an experience in and of itself. And be sure to check out a fado concert if you want to learn about saudade – loss, yearning and comfort, all rolled into one. Emotions that all seafarers will get to know one way or the other…

"I have met new people, been up in the mast, seen indescribable sunsets and laughed a lot. Learning how to sail a ship has been the coolest thing I have done so far and I have confidence in what I do now"
"I have learned that despite my small size, I can do anything if I put my mind to it."
