We are a New Zealand outdoor education, youth development provider operating mainly in the Tīkapa Moana / Hauraki Gulf Marine Park. Our New Zealand maritime environment is one of our greatest treasures and one that many in our communities have not experienced. Our programmes encourage young New Zealanders to become active in the great outdoors. Being able to sail on and be a part of this environment instils a greater appreciation of the need to protect our marine environment.

The Trust works in partnership with charities, schools and community groups offering programmes on board these iconic yachts. At the core of the Trust is a passion extending back to the campaigns of Sir Peter Blake which fired New Zealand’s imagination and appetite for adventure.
