Insights for the
ocean's best.
Workshops
We are developing 6+2 themes for our Ocean Decade Program and Circumnavigation voyage. These themes are in various forms the red threads throughout our workshops wherever we will facilitate them: On-dock expos, seminars, inspirational get-togethers in formal and non-formal sessions onboard, think tanks, and team-building activities along our voyages. They will, and are meant to, evolve as we sail together with our guesting crews, but are in their origin based on the years of experiences and research findings we have collected in our Sailing4Science projects worldwide up until now.
THEMES: Oceanography and Life-Styles
Arriving with a sailboat to harbors and marinas in cities, small coastal villages or remote islands always generates curiosity and attention from the locals. It is a meant-to-be opportunity to share insights, knowledge, stories, cultures, ideas, and experiences together. We have throughout the years learned to use those occasions as great opportunities for us to share what we have to bring to the ones who want to listen. From that we have developed six workshop themes that have been especially well-received:
The workshop based on the UN Ocean Decade 2030 Program:

THEMES: Think Tank and Team-Work
Hrimfare offers ideal facilities for groups that want to meet for insights, teambuilding, privacy, or adventures. We provide safe, comfortable, and "oceanic" facilities onboard in combination with suitable locations ashore or accommodation along our voyages and expeditions. We combine sailing with scientific sampling collection and allow groups to meet in an Informal and friendly manner, cook food together, develop ideas, focus on team building, or just celebrate something together. Hrimfare is a living lab vessel with a built-in oceanic purpose.
