From basic sailing to advanced levels including catamaran cruising we now offer ASA certification courses for everyone. We offer courses with a difference! They are full, live-aboard courses on luxurious boats with A/C, full electronics--the works. If you are serious about learning to sail so you can charter or own a boat--we have the course for you and it's surprisingly affordable! We have private instruction available on any of our yachts as well as pre-scheduled group courses.  Click here to learn more.... Schedule here. (Will be updated before the end of Feb. Generally ASA beginner/intermeiate each weekend, Charter Ready Mon-Fri. Enjoy our courses while you live aboard the boat you might like to charter.

Note: You do have other choices in choosing a program. American Sailing was deverloped as a racers program. NauticEd offers another complicated, un-necessary layer--you still need to get sailing time and certification. The best certification in the world, for cruisers from beginning to advanced is the ASA program and we're a certified ASA facility. Once you get ASA certified, your certification is recognized by more organizations around the world than any other. Check it out here.

Be sure the facility you elect to get certified with is, itself, ASA certified! Let's Go Cruising is!
