Qualified Crew Rank
Crew (or 'crewing') is a great option to start sailing. You can join a local sailing or racing club, or you can enjoy sailing vacations with friends and a professional captain. If you're not ready for a skipper sailing course and just want to participate and have active fun, then crew training gets you started sailing.
Learn
on-the-water
and online
The knowledge online + your school's on-the-water training is designed to provide you with the most comprehensive training available. Learn at your own pace and test knowledge online, and when on-the-water you'll be fully immersed in learning skills and gaining experience with qualified and experienced instructors.
What you will learn
Knowledgeable, competent, and skilled crew are essential to sailing – and crewing is often more fun than taking on the many responsibilities of a skipper. But a responsible crew needs to be knowledgeable and skilled themselves – the Qualified Crew Practical Sailing Course teaches you steering a steady course, sail trimming, docking assists, navigation and knowing just what in the heck that thingy does (hint: probably something important), and more!
