10% discount if enrolled in a BOSS week-long course

The BOSS beginner course is offered roughly once per month.  It is designed to provide sailors with no previous sailing experience with an introduction to sailing basics before they join one of our week-long courses in the Grenadines.  Beginning sailors are encouraged to travel to SVG a few days early to spend 1-3 days participating in our Beginner course, learning on Saltfish, a J-24 sailboat.

The course schedule for a 3 day course (recommended) is as follows:

• Thursday: 0900-1700
• Friday: 0900-1700
• Saturday: 0900-1500

Participants may reserve a room at the Barefoot base if one is available, or stay at a local hotel.  There will be a break for lunch each day.

The course will cover most of the afloat skills defined in ASA 101 Basic Keelboat, or Sail Canada Basic Cruising.  Any afloat skills not covered in the Beginner Course will be addressed in your week-long monohull or catamaran course beginning on Sunday.

NOTE: Prices above are USD per person.  There is a 2-person minimum to book the course.  Maximum capacity is 4 students plus the instructor
