Sailing from Shilshole Bay Marina, our first Marine Explorers Weekend of 2018 is underway! Our onboard student scientists and sailors will spend the next three days on the S/V Carlyn, exploring the Puget Sound, collecting data to answer their research questions, and learning how to navigate a 61′ sailing vessel. Not to mention cultivating the collaboration and critical thinking skills necessary to accomplish such feats!
