Our plan

Access

For many children, the first barrier to sailing is simply getting there. With reliable transport, we can bring schools and settlements into one sailing community.

One island. Three bases. More ways to take part.

Connect the island

A shared van connects our three bases — Savannah Sound, North Eleuthera and South Eleuthera (at CEIS) — and lets the same vehicle serve local children and visiting groups.

Welcome more schools

We plan to offer interested schools one free day at ESA in the first half of 2027. We aim to add one school each year from September 2027. We hope to reach North Eleuthera, Rock Sound, Palmetto Point and Governor’s Harbour.

We will start with Grades 5–6 and follow the same cohort. To do this, we need coaches, transport and school partners. Our existing fleet has the boats.
