With ASA you start off on a smaller sailboat and work your way up to a larger boat receiving a recognized certification with each sailing class. You receive a formal qualification accepted by most bare boat charter companies. Rates are charged PER PERSON. With our informal class you start off on a 30 foot sailboat and just learn how to sail. No classroom, No tests, you just learn how to sail. A FLAT RATE is charged for up to 4 people, so this can be a substantially cheaper than ASA classes if there is more than one person. Here is a comparison between the two different courses.
So, which class is for me? First, ask yourself why do you want to learn to sail? If it is your intention to rent a sailboat or bare boat charter in the Caribbean, then you should probably choose the ASA sailing lessons. If you want to crew on race boats in the future, ASA is a better choice. Also if you just have to have a certificate hanging on your wall! If you intend buying your own sailboat to go cruising on in the near future, then you don't need the ASA Certification, the Just Learn to Sail class will be more than adequate for your needs. If you want a crash course in sailing and don't mind skipping the formalities, then this class is for you. If you have never been sailing before but think you might like sailing and want to make sure you do before making a large investment in sailing lessons, then why not try our Introduction to Sailing class, which is only 4 hours and will give you a very good idea as to whether you'll like learning to sail or not. |
