Our one week (7 days and six nights) live aboard is for the serious sailor who wants to devote the time and effort toward getting as much training as possible without taking the individual courses. This course offers the opportunity for certification to 101 (Basic Keelboat Sailing), 103 ( Basic Coastal Cruising Standard) and 104 (Bareboat Chartering Standard) and ASA 105(Coastal Navigation Standard). The course work for 105 must be completed (except for testing) as a home study prior to the trip. Additionally, you will have completed many of the requirements for 106 (Advanced Coastal Cruising Standard).
Some of the more advanced work will include sailing and anchoring at night. If the weather opportunity presents itself (as often happens in Florida!) the student will practice some heavy weather sailing techniques in real time as opposed to practicing them in more benign conditions.
While there is a great deal of information disseminated, it is still a fun and enjoyable course.
The price of this course is for one person and does not include food. There will be a 10% discount for both students if two sign up and pay at the same time. There are additional discounts for groups of 3 or 4 who sign up and pay at the same time. Groups that sign up together for the discount must take the course together.
