Season 4 of the Educational Passages Podcast is kicking off with our “Imagine This” series - Where the magic of miniboats come alive through the voices and visions of those who make it all possible.

Each episode will paint a vivid picture of discovery, connection, and curiosity — not just tracking the voyages, but exploring the challenges and unexpected outcomes behind them.

Now press play, close your eyes, and imagine this:

The Crimson Current is built by students in New Jersey, USA in 2022, and first travels to Ireland. Classrooms are connected and the boat is relaunched, but unexpected things happen… and the adventure continues through 2025. Listen in for the full story and to find out the latest most exciting update from a far away place.

From the Cliffs of Moher to the classrooms of Galway, our trip to Ireland in March with Educational Passages highlights the magic of ocean education. This is the second part of a conversation with Juliet Fluty (click here to listen to part 1). It dives into all the details behind the visits we mentioned in our blog post: educationalpassages.org/miniboat-magic-in-ireland/.

The trip to Ireland unveiled profound connections that have been made through our miniboat program, and the impact is has had on communities involved. We explore the journeys of students, the warmth of local hospitality, and the importance of the ocean in education and our lives.
