BASIC SAILING

Basic Sailing is designed to teach the beginning sailor the skills necessary to begin a lifetime of sailing. We use textbooks and materials prepared by the American Sailing Association. Upon completion of this course a student will be certified to the ASA Basic Sailing Standard. Basic sailing requires no previous sailing experience.

Participants in Basic Sailing perform all tasks from preparing the boat for sailing, tacking and gybing, sailing on all points of sail, to participating in safety drills.

Our students learn on new and well equipped Catalinas. Our instructors are Coast Guard licensed captains and certified ASA instructors with over thirty years sailing, racing, and offshore cruising. We make a special effort to be supportive and understanding. Our goal is that you learn to sail and that you have a fun and rewarding experience.

Class begins at 9:15 am on Friday. All day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are spent sailing off the Georgia coast. Class size is limited to 6 - $200.00 deposit required.
