Trip DescriptionJoin us for an epic adventure on our last crossing of Georgian Bay. Visit the islands and hidden gems of the North Channel before crossing back into Lake Huron to experience open water sailing. Our destinations are always weather dependent but we can expect to visit places like Lake Topaz or Bridal Veil Falls, or even circumnavigate Manitoulin Island if the conditions are right. The voyage ends with a warm welcome at the Marine Heritage festival in beautiful Kincardine. By the end of this voyage, participants will have the skills to take on a significant degree of independence and responsibility in sailing the ships. |

We also recommend all trainees and parents review the FAQs and the Pre-Voyage Training to prepare themselves with what to expect on their voyage! *This is one of our longest voyages, which can make it extra challenging! First-time trainees, or young trainees (eg. 13-14), may want to start with Race Up The Bruce(six nights), the 30,000 Island Tour (7 nights), or the Georgian Bay Express(2 nights). |
