This spring, Egan Maritime Institute has partnered with the Tall Ship Lynx Educational Foundation to offer a once-in-a-lifetime overnight sailing opportunity aboard the Lynx.
What a year! Many thanks to all our Educational Partners for such a great year. We love teaching the next generation about our Island’s rich maritime history and culture.
We are excited to announce a new Time and Tide Podcast collaboration between Egan Maritime Institute and the Nantucket Shellfish Association.
Egan Maritime's Sea of Opportunities Maritime Education Programs
On Thursday, October 10, at the Nantucket Community Pool, eighth graders from Cyrus Peirce Middle School raced their cardboard constructed boats as part of Egan's Sea of Opportunities class.
On World Maritime Day, Egan spreads awareness for its Sea of Opportunities and the maritime industry's stockpile of possibilities for Nantucket’s youth.
For the sixth academic year, the Sea of Opportunities core Oceanography and Maritime Studies class is back in session with 119 eighth grade students.
Egan's Manager of Maritime Education, Evan Schwanfelder, and 2019's high school Student Mariners share their experiences and reflections from June's five-day Tall Ship sail to Mystic, CT, and back.
Thousands of schoolchildren have learned about Nantucket’s historic seafaring traditions and launched their own youthful passions for exploring the world’s oceans.
