4 . Gap Year Sailing Programs
About Programs
A gap year is typically a year-long break before or after university. Sailing in a gap year is a trip of discovery. These unique adventure programs can take you across oceans and whole regions to experience dozens of countries in a single gap year. They can cover several regions, like the Indian Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, New England, The Maritimes, etc.
You’ll find that a boat is a perfect place to put classroom theory into real-world practice. The valuable new skills that you have here can be easily applied to nearly any workplace. Cooperation, creative thinking, and problem-solving are all necessities of life aboard a ship and applicable wherever you go after your voyage ends.
Planning Your Trip
● Costs
How much a sailing gap year costs changes greatly depending on the type of the program and the length of the voyage. A program lasting a few weeks may cost $5,000 or more. Months-long adventures may be as much as $20,000, especially if they involve college credits or other coursework.
● Accommodation (住宿)
Housing will consist of a berth (铺位) aboard your boat. Don’t expect anything fancy. You’ll likely have little more than a bed and a small storage locker in a two-or three-person cabin. Given the limited size of your living space, expect to stay with your crew mates at all times with little real privacy.
● Health & Safety
Living aboard a ship means that you can’t always count on having medical equipment nearby. You are asked to provide a health certificate (证明) confirming that you are in good health before being accepted into your program. Most programs include medical emergency insurance as part of their fees.
