Dear Sailing Community,
I am one of the directors of Common Tides, a 501(c)(3) non-profit -
Common Tides. Our organization works with local underserved youth to provide free marine science and sailing programs in order to meet our mission of inspiring passion through ocean education and stewardship to create positive change.
We are set to return to the U.S. Virgin Islands this summer during the month of July.
We are looking to partner with someone that might have a boat and be interested in working together. Even if it doesn't work out to work with someone this year, we would be interested in speaking about other years.
We have chartered sailing vessels in the past, but we are looking to develop more of a partnership.
Typically we bring 6-8 interns and then have 2 staff. Therefore, the minimum size boat would likely need to hold 9 people.
If anyone is interested, you can reach me at
mike@commontides.org. I would be happy to provide more details and speak further.
Sincerely,
Mike Smith
