Bareboat Certification Program

This 7-day intensive program will get you from limited sailing experience to becoming qualified and certified to bareboat charter in places like the Virgin Islands. The program includes the most important cruising related elements of our Learn to Sail, Advanced and Cruising Courses. Spend Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday learning to sail on an IC-24. Wednesday through Saturday morning you will live aboard while learning to cruise in the waters of St. Thomas and St John while circumnavigating one or both islands. Become familiar with onboard systems, learn to optimize your sailing skills, explore harbors, practice docking under power, learn advanced navigation and piloting techniques and more — in short, all the skills necessary for safe and fun cruising in the waters of the Virgin Islands.
