PRIMARY DESTINATIONS --

We usually spend our first night on the anchor at Clam Bay just after transiting Porlier Pass.   From Clam Bay the crew decides on our next destinations.  We can choose from any number of locations such as Sidney Spit, Montague Hbr., Bedwell Hbr., Maple Bay, and Snug Cove. Our Cruise through the Gulf Islands provides a great venue for teaching all the requirements of a CYA. or ISPA Sailing Course or for getting more experience on a larger yacht while sailing through the Southern Gulf Islands. 
Several of our primary destinations have excellent shore facilities which crew members may wish to visit. For those who are enrolled in a certification course, the Basic will introduce students to the world of sailing and the fun of cruising. For those who have completed their Basic certification, emphasis of the Intermediate programme is on living aboard, improved sailing skills, navigation and use of the cruising spinnaker.  While some students will be completing their Coastal Navigation course and  putting their new skills to practical use, we will also assist new students with navigation so that they will be able to see the relationships between their charts and their surroundings. At the end of the programme crew members will feel confident about chartering and skippering their own boat.
