Six Day Liveaboard Courses
The Six or Eight-Day Instruction Program is an excellent way to learn how to sail. You will experience six (or eight) consecutive days of sailing instruction on the Monterey Bay and Pacific Ocean.
The Six-Day Program includes (click)Basic Keelboat Sailing and Seamanship (Days 1 & 2) and (click) Basic Coastal Cruising (Days 3-4), Intermediate Coastal Cruising(Days 5-6). The Eight-Day Program adds (click) Bareboat Chartering Course(Days 7 & 8). The course structure is the same as our weekend group classes, but you'll have the chance to live the real sailing lifestyle after class each day. Pacific Yachting & Sailing offers you the free option of living onboard one of our sailboats after your course time. Our Six-or-Eight-Day courses accommodate a maximum of four students (two students, minimum). Come as a couple and close the class at two for an additional charge.
The boat you'll be staying
on is moored at our docks. The accommodations are simple
but adequate.
All of the yachts have sleeping berths,
galleys (kitchens) with cooking stoves and iceboxes, and heads
(bathrooms). Additional bathrooms with showers are close by the
docks. Due to the variety of excellent eating establishments within
a short walking distance, most students do not cook onboard, however
it is permitted. If you do wish to cook aboard, cooking utensils
can be supplied at an extra cost if requested. Bedding will also
be provided at an extra cost, if requested. We recommend that
you arrange to stay at a Inn or Hotel (click on the word inn to view local
hotels) the evening prior to the start of your course. There are
many local restaurants, grocery stores, a state beach and even
a museum all within easy walking distance of your boat.
