ON THE WIND

Is Presented By:

The Quarterdeck

Deep dives on the art of seam’nship

Founded by 59º North Sailing's professional sailing staff, The Quarterdeck's mission is to connect like-minded sailors & dreamers who are passionate about seam'nship and want to learn and explore the art in an engaging, inclusive, inspirational and educational setting. We share knowledge we've earned over tens of thousands of miles on the high seas, critically examining our own experiences & decision-making, and use the collective knowledge of the membership to make all of us better sailors.

The Quarterdeck is designed to be part resource library, part member hangout & forum, and part inspirational archive. Whether you're an armchair sailor just wanting to learn the ropes and gain inspiration, or a seasoned voyager, there is a place for you on The Quarterdeck.

Welcome aboard & HOLD FAST!
