Brigs Youth Sail Training is such a unique program that has allowed me to meet my closest friends that I wouldn't have met otherwise. The program atmosphere is welcoming and positive, feeling like family, no matter your background. Brigs has taught me so much about sailing and navigation, but also about leadership. teamwork, delegation, and public speaking.
