The main attraction was the S.V. Concordia, which is a sailing ship built in 1992 specifically for the organization, Class Afloat ( www.classafloat.com). Each fall or spring semester, 48 Grades 11 and 12 students embark on an around-the-world journey, during which they learn to crew the ship. They are also taught by 7 teachers what they would be taught at a regular land-based Canadian high school. The ship's homeport is in Nova Scotia. The cost of the package is $30,000 Canadian.

In addition, several models were on displayed at the Festival, which are the focus of the first 20 or so photos.
