The project
The mission that we have set for ourselves is complex and demanding, and is perhaps unique with respect to other Italian sailing schools, but it is precisely from this spirit that we feel motivated, and this is why when you participate in community life at the base or elsewhere, it feels like you are a part of a great common project:
To promote, through the establishment of a school, the sport of sailing, according to an associative model that foresees the active and voluntary participation of the members in all the didactic and organizational phases of the management in the true spirit of a non-profit organization.
As the setting for and host of this enterprise, the beautiful Torre Guaceto, a unique location located close to the pristine sea that is in front of a breathtaking beach.

To accomplish its goals, the Association relies on the active participation of those who, having experienced a sailing course in Torre, which is not a standard holiday that most would take, feel driven to participate and contribute as Active Members of the CVT.
Resources are born and developed within the Association, and, as the structures are adapted and updated, initiatives and collaborative projects take shape with other local associations and organizations. The Association’s contribution can be offered on many occasions and in many forms, for example by participating in work groups that organize activities during the year, or what has become the tradition of the openings and closings of the base, or simply by participating in Board of Directors meetings, where the guidelines concerning the development and management of the Association are discussed.
If members would like to participate more on the frontline, they can nominate themselves for positions on the Board of Directors, which has the task of managing the Association and planning CVT’s future by collecting direction from other members. Even the instructors, stewards, and other staff and personnel that you have met or know from the base provide their time for free.
