Greetings All,

Please forgive our delayed updates. As we sail toward Barbados, we’ve been navigating waters affected by current geopolitical conditions, which have likely disrupted our Wi-Fi connectivity.

Despite this, the students remain incredibly focused and motivated. They’ve been studying on watch, during study hall, in class, and probably even in their sleep. Their dedication, growth, and determination are unmistakable. Oral exams took place yesterday and today, with final written exams beginning tomorrow.

We are also proud to share that four more students have successfully passed their OS exams. Congratulations to Alyssa, Alvaro, Mau, Vincent, Ayel, Teagan E., Grace, and Dawson! Each of them rose to the challenge and demonstrated strong seamanship and commitment to their training.

Last night, our passage toward Bridgetown was illuminated by a stunning night sky—a bright moon accompanied by blazing Jupiter and Orion’s Belt guiding our way. Moments like these remind us how special this journey truly is and that a sailor needs to be ready for anything. More updates soon as we approach our destination.
