The 5th Annual Recycle Regatta is now open through April 30, 2024!
Apply the engineering method and help your students become environmental stewards as you repurpose recyclables into seaworthy vessels! Master buoyancy, engineering, and physics obstacles to race your boat creations to victory.
The Recycle Regatta is a free, fun, hands-on competition for K-12 students to participate in from anywhere! Students build a model sailboat from recycled and repurposed materials and race to victory while discovering engineering, mathematics, teamwork, sailing, buoyancy, stewardship, and more.
Classrooms, boating centers, and community organizations are invited to host their “Regatta” and submit their students’ entries!
Digital Resources are available to help bring the Recycle Regatta into your classroom, including a Teacher Toolkit, Recycling Practices, Instructional Videos, and more!
The Annual Recycle Regatta is hosted by: New England Science & Sailing (NESS), Educational Passages, and the North American Marine Environment Protection Association (NAMEPA)
