 This is the second part of a two-part certification program. This is a three-day live-aboard course on Endeavour, our 34' cruising auxiliary sailboat based out of Duluth, Minnesota. The class is conducted on the waters of Duluth Superior Harbor and Lake Superior. Typically, we anchor out one night. Students learn to maneuver the boat under power, dock, anchor, and navigate in differing weather conditions. Your instructor is ASA certified as well as being a U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain.
