Your boat is both classroom and accommodation aboard a cruising boat that aims to prepare you to start your boating adventures as either a skipper or a crew. This Level One program lets anyone with minimal experience on the water learn to sail, practice essential docking and navigating skills, and maneuvering vessels under sail and power.
