Brooks Remy, right, and the crew of the Sailing School Vessel Jeannie B haul up the foresail to get under way just outside Silver Lake on Ocracoke Island.
Remy was one of a 12-man teenage crew that ran the 72-foot schooner for 13 days as a part of a leadership program in July and August.
The trip took them on a 250-mile loop from Camp Sea Gull near New Bern to Manteo, then Ocracoke Island and back to Camp Sea Gull.
The crew was responsible for keeping the boat shipshape and navigating using traditional paper charts.
Broken up into four-man watch groups, the teams took turns steering, navigating, watching in front of the boat and supervising the whole operation.
