Basically, a Lithuanian - UAB Advance Advice - company as won a tender from the EU to sail around the black sea with graduates in order to give them the experience of sailing and also to present their business ideas across the countries on the black sea.

Here is more about the project - "The Captains of Seven Seas" is aimed to raise young and enterprising leaders who will boldly state that they have crossed the seven seas, have overcome all of the challenges and have themselves prepared for the future business journey.
The project integrates different tools and methods for promoting entrepreneurship – lectures, workshops, camps, communication with mentors, contests, journeys, consultations etc. We would like to emphasize that this projects is not a separate competition of business plans, seminar or start-up accelerator. This is a complex set of smoothly integrated measures aimed to promote youth entrepreneurship.
