On your corporate outing in Boston, the team building teams should have 4-6 members and be as equal as possible. Each Group will have a dedicated crew member for safety and training. The event begins with a deck tour which is a safety segment – takes about 20 minutes. All material that is discussed by our team building leader is used in the competition – so listen up!
The First Game:
“SAIL RAISING”
This is a fun Boston team building event! It starts by having participants watch our crew demonstrate the process of raising the sails. Then the groups will break up to practice using all members of the team to execute the raising. Once everyone is feeling comfortable we’ll begin a sail raising competition! This is a time contest where team members must choose roles that best use their skills to execute the sail raising. The difference in time equates to points, and the correctness and completion of the effort is at the captain’s discretion.
The Second Game:
“KNOT TYING”
The best corporate team building activities in Boston surely include learning how to tie nautical knots! In this game, participants will learn 3 knots taught privately to 3 separate members of each team. Then, they go back to their team to re-teach each knot to their teammates. The best part of this team building activity is the “KNOT-OFF.” All teams compete at the same time to tie the knots that are called off at the Captain’s whim. Team members cannot touch each other’s lines but they can verbally coach each other to do it correctly. The teams will compete for points to be the first team to have all the knots tied correctly. Knots that are incorrectly tied will have negative points.
The Last Game:
“BOAT PARTS”
Throughout your Boston team building event, learn about parts of the boat by their official nautical name. During this game, teams are to disperse themselves strategically throughout the boat. When the Captain calls out a boat part, the team that has the first member put their hand on that item gets points for their team…
Your Boston outdoor team building event ends with a tallying of points and awards!
