MAST ANNOUNCE NEW TALL SHIP EXPERIENCE OPPORTUNITIES – APPLICATIONS OPEN NOW

MAST (Merseyside Adventure Sailing Trust) have opened applications for their next Tall Ship Experience programme.

MAST has been providing Tall Ship experiences to young people for over 10 years and was the brainchild of Jim Graves who had for many years previously been offering young people the opportunity to sail.

To date MAST has been able to offer the sailing experience to over 2000 young people from many and varied backgrounds. The Charity has worked with a diverse range of organisations and institutions which has ensured those participating benefit from engaging with young people that they may not normally have the opportunity to meet, that in itself is a major benefit.

The Tall Ship Experience Programme:

Participating in a MAST voyage provides individuals with the opportunity to achieve Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Competent Crew and Duke of Edinburgh (Gold) Residential. Learning activities are complemented by a learning environment where skills are gained in speaking with confidence, working as part of a team, communication, and through life coaching and activities that help them recognise a wider potential for their future.

The experience begins Pre-Voyage where participants will be fully briefed on what to expect. They will be part of a professional crew learning sailing and nautical skills and expanding knowledge of the Maritime environment. To achieve these outcomes the voyage includes classroom-based briefings sessions on all aspects of sailing, and as much opportunity for young people to learn on board ship through supervised practice.
