AMERICAN SAILING ASSOCIATION SAILING SCHOOL

Sailshare in conjunction with our partners, Barefoot Yacht Charters operate the only ASA Sailing School in St Vincent and The Grenadines. The ASA offers a certification that is recognised worldwide. No experience is necessary - the courses are great either for novices who have never set foot aboard a yacht before, or for more experienced sailors looking for a formal qualification. Families and singles are welcome. Course 101 - Basic Keelboat Course 103 - Basic Coastal Cruising Course 104 - Intermediate Coastal Cruising (Bareboat Certification) The courses operate every week of the year and run from Sunday morning through the following Saturday morning. Guests should plan on flying into St Vincent on Saturday and flying out the following Saturday. For the first night we recommend Beachcomber's Hotel ($ 80-100 per night for a double). We will then arrange for a taxi to bring guests to our marina the following morning after breakfast. After meeting the Instructor and an orientation and safety briefing, the yacht will sail for the Grenadines. A typical itinerary will be to Bequia, Mustique, Mayreau, The Tobago Cays, Palm Island, Canouan and then back to St. Vincent - around 80 miles round-trip with relatively short (1 to 4 hours) sailing times between the islands. $ 1,299 per person Included: Fully equipped yacht with ASA Instructor Provisioning for 6 breakfasts and 6 lunches Fuel, ice & water Syllabus book and ASA Log Book  Examinations & Certification Not Included: Evening Meals  Drinks Taxi transfers between the airport & our marina  First night at hotel  Optional Instructor Gratuity  Airport departure Tax Get your Textbooks now and study up for your courses Textbook for ASA Course 101 Basic Keelboat Textbook for ASA Courses 103, 104 (Bareboat Certification), and 105 Coastal Cruising
