Bareboat Chartering - One way trip - Click Above
We'll be boarding the Ericson34 in New London, CT on the late afternoon of Thursday, 8/21/08 (1700). Over the course of the next three days we'll be sailing her from her summer dock via Port Jefferson and Manhasset Harbor through Hell Gate back to the Highlands, NJ. This is an advanced class, and, needless to say, we'll make it 'interesting'. The detailed course planning, taking into account tides and currents, is most challenging. Students will learn how to manage these long coastal passages in tidal waters. We may decide to stop at different locations along the way, but, regardless of the plans, you'll enjoy the beautiful scenery in this most enticing sailing area.
Be prepared to practice all skills of the Coastal Navigation course. Please read up on all material from previous courses, especially the systems sections of the Bareboat class. This course will challenge you very broadly on all areas of advanced vessel- handling, competent skippering and emergency management. A true learning laboratory!
We will provide transportation to New London for a nominal charge, if there is a demand.
We will return to the Highlands, NJ in the evening of 8/24/08. CLICK HERE TO BOOK
