Biography

Geronimo is a voyage of self-discovery. Student crew members discover the joys and challenges of life aboard a 69-foot cutter as they sail along one leg of a transatlantic tour that from 2015-2017 featured stops in the Azores, Spain, Italy, Greece, the Canary Islands and Puerto Rico, as well as ports along the eastern coast of the U.S. As they live, learn and explore together, classmates discover what it truly means to be a crew.

The Geronimo programme was founded at St George's School in 1974 and has had more than 1,200 students participate. Geronimo sails year round between the Canadian Maritime and the greater Caribbean, with occasional longer voyages to Europe.
