Men and women of all different ages, from many different places and backgrounds, sign up for the Training.  Most people are interested in working and/or spending lots of time outdoors and/or on the water.

Most participants are in their late teens, twenties, and early thirties.   Our oldest participant was in his mid-fifties – and many of us had a hard time keeping up with him!  We think that a range of ages – and backgrounds – makes each Training program uniquely interesting.
