"We
had a great trip, and the boys haven't stopped talking about it. Thanks for something
we will remember all our lives." British Virgin Islands learning
vacation - BP, NC "It was great. I liked it a lot. One porpoise
swam on his side to see us - we called him Looker." Pacific NW learning
vacation - TJB, Age 9, OR "This
was our best vacation ever" and "Well beyond our high
expectations" are typical of the comments families give us about
our Private Learning Cruises. Boating is a terrific family sport, and a crewed
charter can provide an extraordinary and memorable experience for the entire family.
Fun activities include exploring ashore, fast dinghy rides and unforgettable
wildlife encounters. Choosing an area with short distances between stops keeps
things interesting for children. In tropical areas, many yachts add
high speed tubing, water skiing, and knee/wakeboarding behind a powerful dinghy. And
consider diving - you don't have to be certified in advance!

Children and safety:
Safety is an unwavering concern, so your crew we will work with you to set
ground rules. You should bring a life jacket for any child that does not swim,
so they have a perfect fit. Learn-To-Sail:
We can prepare your family to sail together on your own successfully and
confidently, sidestepping the potentially challenging dynamics of some family
members attempting to teach others. You can develop skills for handling a yacht
as a family or couple. Children can help with tasks appropriate for their ages
and make a genuine contribution. Your crew can vary the pace as you like each
moment. Optional American Sailing Association (ASA) certification is available
on many yachts. |
