FOCUSED ATTENTION
In order to provide the best experience for our students, we limit our class size to six students with a minimum of three students. If we have less than three students, we will need to reschedule your class, or convert it to a private class for an additional fee. We offer non-participants the opportunity to share a cabin and enjoy the adventure with our students for half price. We also offer the opportunity for our students to book the whole boat with family and friends for a private class.
COME PREPARED
It is required that you purchase and review the course materials prior to the start of your class. This will greatly enhance your experience and confidence once you are onboard the boats. You will be expected to complete a written exam in addition to the onboard skills test while onboard. It is highly recommended you complete the practice tests in the course materials to best prepare you for the journey ahead.
You can purchase the ASA Course Materials here: https://asa.com/textbooks/
NO HASSLES
A non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking, and tuition will be paid in full prior to the beginning of class. BPY will charge the balance to the credit card on file 30 days prior to the first day of your scheduled class, or you can pay the balance online.
Detailed Payment/Cancellation Policy Here »
If you book online, a 6% fee will be added by the third-party provider of this reservation service. This fee is not collected by BPY, and in most cases is non-refundable. Prices are subject to change without notice.
BECAUSE STUFF HAPPENS
Please understand that your change/rescheduling affects all other enrolled students, some of whom may have already purchased airfare, hotel accommodations, and taken time off work to attend this class. Your changes also affect your instructor’s schedule, as well as boat scheduling, having made the boat unavailable for charter during the scheduled class time.
If you must reschedule, you can request alternate dates up to 30 days before the start of your scheduled class, with a 10% rescheduling fee, allowing you to book another date up to one year from your original class start date. There are no refunds offered if you cancel within 30 days of your class.
BEST WEATHER IN THE COUNTRY… BUT
While San Diego enjoys some of the fairest and most consistently good weather in the USA, we will on rare occasions have to postpone a class due to inclement weather (typically a Small Craft Advisory). This decision is made at the discretion of the sailing instructor and management of BPY Sailing School. If a decision to postpone a class is made, it is done so with the safety and comfort of of our clients in mind. If foul weather is forecast we urge you to contact us for an update.
