SAILING SCHOOL: GREAT LAKES SAILING CO – TRAVERSE CITY, MI

Great Lakes Sailing Co offers American Sailing Association accredited sailing courses from mid-May to early October.

Enroll in a premium course to receive private instruction aboard a Jeanneau 349, 350, 380, 410 or 440. 

Options available for ASA 101, 103, 104, 105, and 106.

Upgrade your ASA Course experience by booking a private course on the latest Jeanneau Sun Odyssey models. Jeanneau is known as the premium brand in the industry. The outstanding accommodations are only equaled by their outstanding sailing performance. It’s these qualities that have made Jeanneau a worldwide top seller. A few of the qualities include:

  • Twin rudders allow for effortless steering underway as well as excellent tracking under sail. This means no sudden course changes when you let go of the wheel and improved responsiveness when backing up in the marina.
  • Award winning walk-around cockpit (all but the 349 model) will seriously change the way you experience life on deck. No more climbing over cockpit seats.
  • Hard chine carried forward in the hull design means minimal heel. Flat is fast when sailing and you’ll experience how much more comfortable sailing can be when you’re not constantly heeled over – especially in high winds.
  • Bow thruster makes docking a breeze.
  • Air conditioning also has a heating mode for those chilly nights.
  • Generator – for climate control when anchored or underway (not all models)
