Many of the students took a hand at the wheel while learning about navigation. They learned what makes a sailboat go. Some history and information was given about what goes on between the two bridges.

The NorthWind will continue to take students on these field trips to get a better understanding of our river. Basics of sailing, ecology and our local history are topics of discussion.

The NorthWind is owned by the City and operated by Gloucester City Sail.
