As teaching new and returning sailors, one of the most important courses we offer is the Basic Sailing Instructors Certification Course for members of SEAS.

This is a two part course, including both Red Cross Instructors Certification, as well as a hands-on course in instructing the Basic Sailing Course.

Graduates will receive Red Cross Certification, as well as have the opportunity to regularly sail with new students.  

We are always looking to add new instructors.

3. Pass 40 question written test taken from Start Sailing Right. Passing grade is 80%.

The cost is approximately $60.00 plus your own copy of Start Sailing Right.
