Location: Vineyard Haven, MA
Position Summary:
At Martha's Vineyard Ocean Academy, our work is to get young people outside and on the water by facilitating weeklong sailing voyages aboard the topsail schooner Shenandoah. Shenandoah operates out of Vineyard Haven, MA. From this beautiful harbor, our program embarks on a series of weeklong sailing adventures with students from New England and beyond.
Voyages guides are the most important component to the success of these sailing operations. Think of this position as a modern "deck hand" job. Voyage Guides help to sail and maintain the tall ship Shenandoah, while also working as a guide/mentor to the students aboard. This is a great opportunity to learn to sail and spend the summer upon the beautiful waters of the Vineyard Sound.
Room and Food provided aboard Shenandoah. Position runs seasonally from May through October.
