Teambuilding
A day of sailing aboard the Orion is an original idea for teambuilding. You will really get to know your colleagues or team-members on a trip across the IJsselmeer. Learn to cooperate flexibly by joining forces and setting aside your egos. For both beginning sailors and experienced skippers, a day spent sailing a relatively large ship like the Orion can be a wonderful teambuilding experience. Hoisting the sails together, enjoying the fresh breeze and the cool water; it doesn’t get any better.
Learning to sail
Together with your colleagues or business relations you will learn what it takes to sail a ship, from helm to stays and from navigating to mainsail. By the end of the day we will be tacking together effortlessly. The Orion has a displacement of 75 tons, and she can only be kept under control when everybody puts their best foot forward!
NOTE: Egasail also offer an intensive teambuilding training day, focusing on professional cooperation. Are there internal obstacles within your company, are the e lines of communication crossed or do you want to get your staff up to a higher level? Then perhaps our intensive programme is more to your liking. Please take a look at our Professional Cooperation page.
