LEARN TO SAIL

Progressive sailing education

​

Learn to sail with Bluesail's stepped approach to sailing education. Unlike any other program offered in the market today, Bluesail takes a "best of breed" approach to all the most effective sailing education tools.

​

Whether you are new to sailing, a current or future boat owner, or an experienced mariner looking to take your skills to the next level, Bluesail's training clinics have you covered.

COMPETENCE VS. CERTIFICATIONS

​

While certifications are helpful, as a sailor we should be thinking about specific goals.  Are you looking to increase your competency and knowledge, or pass a test to obtain a certificate?

​

Bluesail combines online theory-based coursework with customized practical on-the-water training and classroom dialogue in order to create a comprehensive sailing training program that meets the requirements of insurance underwriters and bareboat charter operators around the world.  Most importantly though, our stepped approach to learning ensures you achieve a level of competency necessary so you, your friends, and family can safely enjoy being out on the water.
