Build-A-Boat

Let’s channel the outdoor sea adventure of the America’s Cup as your teams construct, test and race sea crafts made mostly from wood, inflatables and rope. 

Additional points are earned by teams with the creation and judging of a team flag, the performance of a sea chantey and by expressing a high degree of team spirit throughout the event!

The Team Experience:

  • Kickoff begins with a lively and proven opening activity
  • Next, the facilitator briefs the group on program tasks, including building the raft, materials, dimensions, safety procedures and team member roles i.e. raft builders, flag designers, sea chantey creators, racers and more
  • Teams are invited to test their rafts in the ocean, lake or hotel pool and tweak their design before the races start
  • Let the races begin! Races include team members relaying their raft to the water, suiting up the racers and helping them launch their vessels
  • Points are awarded to each team for their team flag, sea chantey performance and race results
  • To capture the excitement of the day, each team poses with their rafts for a team photograph
  • Grand finale includes an exciting awards ceremony complete with gold medals

The success of your event is our top priority. To ensure a positive outcome, program modifications may be made based on variables such as group size, space limitations, timeframe, etc.

Thanks again “Nation” for a fantastic session. It was great to get to know each other with such a fun and challenging event. The entire team participated in Igniting Peak Performance enthusiastically. Starting out as a pure competition and then to see the finale where teams worked together to beat the overall time was outstanding! The biggest takeaway from the activity today was that teams sharing best practices and working together elevate each other!

Our leadership team held our first face to face in over three years. Ray and the Team Building Nation team facilitated a Bike Build charity event that was unforgettable. The energy in the room with the different activities on the iPad were awesome and engaging. The icing on the cake was being able to hear from the local charity group that received the bikes.

Wanted to pass along that your facilitator was really great! She kept everyone laughing and having a great time during the entire session. In It To Win It was the perfect ending to a busy day online and it really helped the team to de-stress for an hour or so. Job well done!

We are so glad we chose “Nation” and the Bike Building activity. It was great that our in-house team and our remote employees around the country were all able to participate in the event. We typically give back to local charities but putting the bikes together made everyone feel more involved. Feedback was great!

I can’t thank you guys enough for a well executed program. The Virtual Team iHunt event was just what we needed to break things up a bit and reenergize our group. It was hilarious seeing the pictures and videos taken during the event of everyone scavenging in and around their houses. Thanks for a good time!
