“Time well spent! Definitely will be back for more. Our instructor was excellent, patient and quick to act when assistance was needed.”

“Such a great experience, amazing trip and class! I learned much more than I ever thought possible. Great instructors, incredibly knowledgeable in all aspects of sailing, patient and detailed in their lessons. I recommend this program to anyone interested in learning about sailing, particularly for a novice like me.”

“Offshore made it easy to learn! From easing us through the many tactical details related to arrival and expectations with extensive email communications, to the excellent books to the truly remarkable instructor who made learning a joy – the Fast Track to Cruising was one of the best weeks ever. Great memories, excellent skills development. What more could one ask for?”

“Our instructors were excellent. They let the students try many new things by themselves that increased our confidence level. They were very patient and reassuring. We had a tough passage from Miami to Captiva via Key West in bad weather. The sailing was difficult, and the learning experience was outstanding.”

“Money well spent. Would do it again, but I don’t need to! After only 5 days of classroom and power cruising time, I feel confident that I can better handle my boat in a variety of situations.”

“My instructor’s overall enthusiasm for sailing was so contagious, he has me addicted to sailing and craving more! He did an amazing job identifying my strengths and weaknesses in the classroom and on-water, and tailored his teaching to meet my needs and abilities.”

“That’s me steering a big catamaran. It was absolutely the best seven-day adventure ever. An amazing instructor, exuded knowledge, skill and most of all, patience. I loved rafting up with the other students from the class.”

“My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful experience in the Fast Track to Cruising Course in the British Virgin Islands. The instructors were excellent – extremely knowledgeable and patient. I had some small boat experience and my wife was a complete novice, but we’re now comfortable and excited to take our first bareboat charter on our own.”

“Time well spent! Definitely will be back for more. Our instructor was excellent, patient and quick to act when assistance was needed.”

“This is the second time I’ve taken the Learn to Sail course. The last was 10 years ago. The experience was awesome. My instructor was excellent, gave me plenty of opportunity to practice, and never shied away from answering questions. In 3 days, he provided all the knowledge needed to sail. I recommend this course for any sailing enthusiast.”
