ELISSA Day Sails (Galveston)

ELISSA Day Sails DETAILS

From the ELISSA Day Sails organizer:

GHF is able to offer a limited number of ELISSA day sail spots on board as a sail training student. As a sail training student, participants will experience what life was like as a 19th-century sailor. The program includes both hands-on and lecture learning, focusing on setting sails and maneuvering the 145-year-old ship through the Gulf of Mexico. Come with us on this journey through the past and experience your own piece of history.

Sail Trainees must be:

  • Ages 10 and older. Children ages 10-17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
  • Ambulatory without aids and comfortable with outdoor exposure for up to 6 hours. Trainees with disabilities must advise prior to the sailing date.

What is included:

  • 6-hour sail aboard the 1877 Iron Barque ELISSA
  • A course of instruction on how to sail a square-rigged ship
  • Lunch
  • Water and soda
