Cruising Catamaran (ASA 114) is a two-day, liveaboard, advanced cruising course for sailors with cruising experience. Graduates are certified to act as skipper and crew of a 30-50 foot multihull sailboat by day in coastal waters. Students will learn all aspects of skippering a cruising catamaran and sleep aboard the boat at our marina and sail in the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore on Lake Superior.
Vacation courses are held aboard Calico, our Fountaine-Pajot Athena 38 cruising catamaran in the beautiful Apostle Islands near Bayfield, Wisconsin. Students pre-board the boat after 5 PM the night before the course starts.
