Nathaniel Bowditch Leadership Society
For all those who believe in the transformative power of ships and the sea

"As long as ships shall sail, the needle point to the north, and the stars go through their wonted courses in the heavens, the name of Nathaniel Bowditch will be revered as of one who has helped his fellowmen in time of need, who is a guide to them over the pathless oceans, and who forwarded the great interests of mankind.” - Salem Marine Society

You are cordially invited to join the NATHANIEL BOWDITCH LEADERSHIP SOCIETY of Tall Ships
America. The Society recognizes individuals whose generosity and support lays down a clear course for others to follow.

Tall Ships America is the hub for tall ships activities, information and expertise in North America, and we are commended by Congress as the sail training organization representing the United States. We support the people, ships and programs of sail training through grants, scholarships, conferences, education, publications, and public events and advocacy.

The Nathaniel Bowditch Leadership Society plays a vital role in the ongoing success of Tall Ships America and our capacity to support adventure and education under sail. We are proud to recognize Society members through several different levels of donor recognition.
