Sail on the Brig Niagara when the ship leaves Duluth and sails to Port Washington WI as a sailing trainee. You will learn the skills for harnessing the wind by the combined effort of many hands. Experience the thrill of standing on a swaying footrope far above a wooden deck, the ship but a sliver below, and sun lit waves out to the horizon. Feel the sense of accomplishment that comes from learning a seaman’s craft; from teamwork, from being a proud member of a ship’s company.
