Join us for an offshore sailing flotilla to Kodiak, Alaska!
Ideal for sailors looking to experience more advanced cruising and passage-making.
As a flotilla of 3+ boats, we will cruise along the Alaskan coastline amongst the wildlife and stunning scenery, tucking into fjords to view glaciers and exploring ashore along the way. Several nights will be at anchor, and a few nights we will sail through the night holding a watch schedule. The exact itinerary will vary based on interests of students/guests aboard each boat, but the flotilla will follow a similar path to or from Kodiak. Make it a learning vacation and get ASA certified! If you're experienced, you can join the flotilla as a bareboat charter. Check out our options
