Here at Sail Training International our purpose is the development and education of young people through the sail training experience, regardless of nationality, culture, religion, gender or social background. We are a registered charity (not-for-profit organisation) and have worldwide membership and activities.
We achieve our purpose through a range of activities and services, including:
- conferences and seminars
- races and other events for sail training Tall Ships
- publications and DVD presentations
- international research
- the Class A Tall Ships Forum (whose members are the operators of circa 70 of the world’s largest square-rigged sail training vessels)
