Sailing certificationDon's goal: “I’d sailed for years but was interested in a certification that would be recognized both nationally as well as internationally. At OCSC, I was able to test out of some of the beginning courses and move right on to the one closest to my level. I took Basic Cruising, got my certification, and now I’m chartering boats!”

Good to know:

  • If you have experience under your belt but need to brush up on your skills, you have the options of taking a three-hour Bay Review course in Basic Keelboat, Basic Cruising, or Bareboat Cruising. After sailing for three hours, you can sit down with the instructor and map out a course plan that fits your level. Or take a private lesson, and you and your instructor will sail together to determine the next best step.
