Sail training on ELISSA gives the participants the once-in-a-lifetime chance to sail onboard a historic sailing ship from 1877 and literally, sail history! Don’t think you are a climber? No problem, we have needs for people of all abilities. ELISSA’s sail training is an adventure activity for people of all ages and abilities. Young and older folks alike can find camaraderie and a rewarding experience either in ELISSA’s rigging or on her decks.
ELISSA is sailed and lovingly maintained by a dedicated volunteer group that works and trains year-round. Now is your chance if you have longed to hoist a sail on a historic tall ship.
