Why a company sailing trip?

Organising a company sailing trip is not only a unique experience, but also a great way to promote team building and strengthen ties within the company. Whether it is a day on the water or a multi-day adventure, a company outing on a sailboat offers a perfect mix of fun and business bonding. In addition, it is a unique opportunity to leave the work environment, feel the wind in your hair and experience an unforgettable maritime adventure together with colleagues. So, a company sailing trip is not only an experience that is refreshing, but also one that strengthens cooperation in the workplace.

Sailing with your staff or team

During a company sailing trip, participants can actively participate in navigating the ship, hoisting the sails and setting the course. Anyone from your team or your colleagues who would like to help on board is welcome, as the crew is happy to explain how everything works and even give the helm.

These joint efforts help strengthen team spirit and communication within the company. But, that does not know that it is just hard work and there is no room for some relaxation. On the contrary, the calm atmosphere on board the sailing ship allows colleagues to get to know each other in an informal way, which can foster mutual relationships in the workplace. So, would you rather stay in the cosy cockpit, while waves and dykes pass you by? This is also okay.

Prepared for everything

If we go sharp to windward, tube water can come over the ship. Therefore, professional sailing gear is on board for all crew members. When the wind is strong, life jackets also come on deck. In addition, an experienced skipper is on hand to guide the party and give the necessary instructions, allowing even those without sailing experience to take part in the adventure. The company sailing trip will be an unforgettable occasion where all team members join hands, literally and figuratively, to steer the ship together and feel the wind in the sails.

A tailor-made sailing day with the company

There are plenty of options for your company sailing trip. Below are some examples of packages for company sailing trips. Of course, we are happy to think with you if you have special requests.
