Sail Training / Adult

Adult Training Programs

These courses are designed for adults who seek to upgrade their skills on the water. Since DUEN is a Canadian Coastguard approved passenger-carrying vessel, and added benefit is that courses taken onboard can be registered as commercial seatime. In addition, this is a cost-effective way to experience life on a proven offshore cruising vessel.

It makes available marine assets necessary to carry out safe learning experiences without the capital outlay of a sailboat, safety equipment, and other supplies.

Students can work on individual sailing certification as well as explore the rich coastal waters surrounding the southern tip of Vancouver Island during 4-5 day trips. They visit marine parks, marine centres and wildlife museums as well as relax and enjoy The Natural Coast.
