Course #235 - learn to sail/introduction to cruising course

This course is the ultimate combination course for those novice sailors that see themselves sailing off on a Caribbean bareboat cruise or plan on buying a cruising boa t of their own someday.

This is a 5 day liveaboard course. You would arrive on the island of St. Croix the evening before your course is scheduled to begin. Upon arrival you would be shown your sleeping accommodations aboard the 50’Gulfstar Vixen. You will receive a brief orientation of the boat course schedule & the local shopping & dining area.

The first three days you will be instructed aboard the famous 24’ Rainbow Training sloops. With our facilities conveniently located in downtown Christiansted, on the board walk, you are within walking distance to shops, restaurants, banking even haircuts.

During the next two days of your course, you will be setting sail on the 50’ Gulfstar for an overnight adventure. During your cruise aboard the Vixen all of your meals are included in the cost of the course. Upon your return on the 5th day, you will be eligible for the US Sailing Keelboat Certification, if all practical requirements have been met.
