s/y Bon Aventura

s/y Bon Aventura – 40 foot steel ketch, long keel sailing boat
Home harbor; west coast Sweden

The Erasmusplus project.
Hastekasen Farm and adventure center is on occasion renting the sailing yacht Bon Aventura to use as an educational platform for Adventure learning and leadership training.
How can an adventurous situation enhance learning different competences? Everything from the obvious; boatmanship, sailing, navigation, mechanic and electrical skills. But also; team building, creativity, organizational skills, leadership. At times done under stress full situations that have real risks and consequences.
While living onboard there will also be development in communication, cultural skills, civic competence. Since the project is “open” there will be lots of documentation and story telling (inspiring others). And all the time – personal development; encouraging; curiosity, boldness, self awareness, entrepreneurship…

In the long term perspective s/y Bon Aventura will sail around the world.
