21st Century Ship Update: Trip 1, Day 1

June 04, 2010

Tonight's Update is from Ms. Christine, our current Head Educator and Teacher for Trip 1.

Welcome Aboard!    

Today we welcomed 20 new trainees onto the Spirit of South Carolina! We have put the trainees through their paces and they have excelled. Trainees have had their first hose shower, raised sails and settled into their bunks. They are learning the new “language” of boats and now go down ladders, not stairs, and use the ‘head’ instead of the restroom. We are currently anchored for the evening and tomorrow will bring many new adventures. Trainees will have the opportunity to learn about plankton, steer the vessel and learn about watch (shift) standing. All the trainees on board are learning fast and looking forward to many more days on board the Spirit of South Carolina!
