About Our Locations Courses FAQs Contact Shop ASA Sailing Courses Reef Runner Sailing School is an American Sailing Association (ASA) certified and accredited program, offering the experienced or novice student a proven and successful curriculum to teach the skills necessary to bareboat and captain a coastal cruising sailing vessel. Virtually all bareboat facilities, both domestic and international, recognize ASA certification as the standard of excellence. We offer stand-alone and combo classes for beginners and advanced students. By design, we keep our classes small. We usually have only 2 to 4 students per class. This guarantees each student enough hands on training to really learn to sail.
