Welcome to the website of Antwerp Student Fleet! We are proud to introduce the second edition of a long series of beautiful adventures on the seas. Our aim is to organise a voyage on three traditional sailing vessels in the North Sea in September 2021. Eighteen students from the Antwerp Maritime Academy are going to practice life on board and familiarise themselves with their roles as future professional officers in the maritime sector.

Today’s students are tomorrow’s officers. By going back to the origins of navigation, Antwerp Student Fleet is resolutely in line with the spirit of excellence of the Antwerp Maritime Academy, thus contributing to the training of a generation of demanding, competent sailors who love their profession and the sea.
