VIEW NHMC PROGRAMS

New Horizons Maritime Center provides a dynamic hands-on, apprentice-based learning environment, designed specifically for youth development and community betterment. These programs have been developed from a concern for at-risk and underserved youth who struggle to succeed in the traditional educational system. Our goal is to provide life changing programs to those who would never have the chance to experience something like this without us.

NHMC offers in-school boat building classroom instruction, after-school programs, educational workshops, apprentice possibilities, boat building classes, sailing instruction and a safe place to pursue productive and useful life changing educational activities. Through boat building and the restoration of donated boats needing repair, and under the careful supervision of NHMC staff and volunteers, youth groups and other interested people in the community will learn a wide variety of trade and social skills necessary for success in today’s competitive world. Participants will gain a greater sense of tradition, respect, and societal values as they tap into the rich maritime traditions our country has to offer. New interests will be developed and innate potential realized.

OUR MISSION
