Ocean Navigators - Ages 12+

Don't just cross the Atlantic. Learn how to navigate it! 🧭🌊

Real sailing. Real challenges. One incredible ocean to explore.

Your teenager is about to cross an entire ocean. What if they could do more than just enjoy the ride?

What if they could understand the weather behind your route, calculate distances, explore how your boat produces energy, and discover the science that makes ocean sailing possible?

Ocean Navigators is a 58-page printable activity workbook designed for teenagers and curious young sailors aged 12+ who are ready to take their Atlantic adventure to the next level.

Rather than simply learning sailing theory, young navigators are encouraged to observe, investigate, solve problems, and use real information from their own boat.

Because when you're crossing an ocean, the best classroom is right outside your cabin!

🧭 What will you discover?

• 🗺️ Navigation & passage planning: Work with compass bearings, courses, distances, boat speed, and real navigation challenges.
• 🌬️ Weather & sailing science: Explore trade winds, apparent wind, clouds, squalls, and the forces that move a sailboat across an ocean.
• ⭐ Navigating by the stars: Discover celestial navigation and how sailors have used the night sky to find their way.
• ⚡ Energy & life aboard: Investigate solar power, hydrogeneration, electricity consumption, and how boats turn seawater into fresh drinking water.
• 🌊 Ocean science & the environment: Explore currents, marine ecosystems, the ocean floor, and some of the challenges facing our oceans.
• 📐 Real-world problems & calculations: Put maths and science to work using distances, speed, energy, and observations from your own passage.
• 📖 Your Navigator's Logbook: Record discoveries, track progress, and build a personal record of the Atlantic crossing.
• 🏆 Ocean Navigator Certificate: Celebrate the knowledge gained and the adventure completed!

Throughout the workbook, you'll also find tips from Captain Simón and real sailing examples from aboard NDS Zero, an electric catamaran sailing around the world.

⛵ From passenger to active crew member

An Atlantic crossing is an amazing opportunity for teenagers to develop practical skills, confidence, independence, and a deeper understanding of the world around them.

This workbook encourages them to ask questions, think for themselves, and become more involved in what's happening aboard.

Instead of simply checking how many days are left until landfall, they can start asking:

Why are we sailing this course? How does the wind affect our speed? How much energy are we producing? How can we calculate the distance we've travelled?

And suddenly, an ocean crossing becomes much more than a journey between two continents.

It becomes an opportunity to understand sailing, put new skills into practice, and take a more active role in the family adventure.
