Jenny B. began her journey as the Assistant Cook with no previous knowledge of schooners. In her first year, she learned the intricacies of sailing and the mechanics of schooners. After advancing to deckhand for another season, she has now launched her own business as a professional sailmaker creating sails for the entire windjammer fleet.
