Taught by a professional tall ship captain and cruising sailor, this course is helpful for anyone interested in being a better sailor or looking to get a deeper understanding of sailing terminology, rules, and emergencies. The course is structured to specifically help those studying for a U.S. Coast Guard sailing endorsement to operate sailing vessels in charter service or for deliveries. However, it is useful to all sailors and will give you a true understanding of sailing theory and practice. Ideally students have some sailing experience before tackling this class.
