Our mission…

as stewards and operators of Schooner Tyrone, is to offer sail training opportunities to youth and adults while maintaining and caring for the vessel to our highest abilities. We aim to offer access to the water with its many lessons and joys regardless of experience, age, race, gender or class; everyone aboard will be treated with respect and dignity.

We will act as fully engaged stewards of the vessel, maintaining Tyrone to the deserved high standard of condition, operation and safety so she can be shared and experienced by many for years to come.

We shall be both non-discriminatory and active in our goal of providing inclusive and equitable access to sail training. We will partner with focused organizations and non-profits to fund and offer sail training opportunities to otherwise under-represented groups.

All who come aboard will be treated with the compassion, dignity and the respect we all owe one another and deserve.
