About
A sleepaway sailing camp aboard Ellen or Constantia, two sailing ships cruising the Stockholm archipelago. Kids join one of three watches that rotate between galley, navigation and deck, so everyone cooks, hoists sails, takes the helm and climbs the rigging. Evenings are spent in an island harbor, swimming and playing ashore. No sailing experience needed. Suits kids happy to share a bunk and see their phone only every third day.
