Corporate Sailing and Team Building
Our sailing schooner Jabuticaba offers an unrivaled setting for company team building. By its very nature, sailing is engaging and enlivening. Add to that the close teamwork it takes to operate this majestic vessel, and your group is in for an experience of a lifetime. Bring your teams together and help them develop essential business skills while sailing along the beautiful Konkan coastline. Here is your chance to actively engage your teams in an intensive day of experiential teambuilding they will never forget. Or, treat them to an unforgettable off-site retreat sailing, eating and drinking sailing past the golden beaches and remote islands of Goa. India.

You'll go far beyond other conventional team building activities. Instead, our team building exercises focus on working together in groups in an extremely dynamic and demanding environment, with constantly changing forces requiring you to think and act fast. It's definitely challenging, but at the end of the day, you'll be a better team player for it. So, you may ask, what does all this have to do with sailboats and sailing? a sailboat is a wonderful teaching analogy.

The vessel responds to a myriad of influences and behaves accordingly without hesitation, reservation, fear, manipulation, or judgment. If you will stop and listen, a boat will easily and effortlessly teach.

The analogy’s applicability to organizational and business environs often astounds participants.

We know how to get people to think differently about leadership. We provide them with a multi-sensory, experiential, and visceral learning experience that consistently receives high marks. At a minimum, every participant will take away some good ideas. Commonly, the vast majority of the participants leave excited, challenged, committed to new approaches, possessing some new tools and models, and quite often wanting more.

Whether for corporate entertainment or team building there are few experiences that will top this one!

Some of the exercises we will work upon are on the schooner, where to successfully sail the ship the team will need to work together and support each other. The team will enjoy a fantastic interactive event that will instill a high degree of trust and inter-reliability directly transferable to the work place.

We will also have on board exercises and activities as well as in the water activities such as learning a challenging new sport like wake boarding or waterskiing, snorkeling and scuba diving (with all safety equipment of course) and ship-shore activities like treasure hunts, construction and other reality based fun activities.

On board the Jabuticaba, we realize that not every group wants or needs an intense, results-focused program and that sometimes just spending time together doing something fun and new - "bonding" - can be beneficial. We also know that teams seeking to "reach the next level" can not do so without custom-designed and professionally-facilitated programs. To that end, we offer two types of events on board Jabuticaba "Team-building" and "Team-bonding".
