Clearwater Volunteer (Sailing/Teaching)

Clearwater looks for onboard volunteers with a passion for teaching, who love young people and are comfortable leading small group activities. You don't need previous sailing experience to volunteer with us, but a background in teaching, environmental issues, music or earth sciences are a plus. Each week from mid-April to the end of October, the sloop Clearwater and the schooner Mystic Whaler, our sistership, accept six volunteers to live aboard the boat, help sail our ship and teach our education program. This is an exciting way to see the Hudson River, sail aboard a beautiful ship and teaching hundreds of kids about the environment.
