Check our site for pricing and information then call and make a deposit to hold you reservation when you do we will send out all you study materials and a letter telling you how to prepare and what to bring.  Staying in the boat is possible with your classes in Beautiful Sunset Marina just 2miles from downtown Key West plus we are done each day by 4pm so you can go out on the town. Go ahead and sleep in class doesn’t begin until 9:30 am

So not only is this an education in sailing it’s a Vacation as well and we can snorkel some beautiful reefs to boot. ( we have all the gear )
