Learn and vacation at the same time on our liveaboard Power Learn-n-Cruise that provides instruction combined with a cruising vacation. Our most popular course model, this course will take you out in the islands for a long stretch of yachting, exploring and learning, in a relaxing teaching environment.
For those experienced boaters who have already booked a charter with us and would like to become competent maneuvering a larger yacht, maneuvering a different engine configuration (single or twin) or for those would like a refresher during their charter. This course is completed on the first morning of your charter.
Charter a boat and have an instructor join you to provide private, individualized training at the start of your charter. Then when ready you can return your instructor to Bellingham and continue your charter on your own. This option is ideal for larger groups, those who wish to learn on a specific vessel, have children aboard or crew that would rather vacation than participate in training, and those who need either more or less training than is supplied by the 4-day Learn-n-Cruise.
Learn to sail or further your skills on one of our 2 day or 7+ day live aboard sailing courses. We offer Basic Sailing, Basic Coastal Cruising, Bareboat Cruising (Charter Certification), Cruising Catamaran, the Docking Endorsement, Coastal Navigation and Advanced Coastal Cruising.
