Outbound Sailing is a certified ASA Sailing School in Austin offering a full range of sailing lessons from Basic Keelboat Sailing to Advanced Cruising & Seamanship

Whether you are interested in day sailing or have visions of chartering a sailboat in exotic locations like the Caribbean or the Med, our sailing lessons are specifically designed to prepare you to safely skipper a cruising sailboat in a variety of conditions and locales with total confidence.

Since our class sizes are limited to a maximum of 3 students, you are assured of receiving a level of attention and personalization that you cannot achieve otherwise. With our lessons, you have the instructor’s undivided attention and each student is “hands-on” at all times when we are underway. No sitting around watching! At Outbound Sailing our objective is to provide you with the best sailing instruction available, and we are absolutely confident that you will be delighted with the results.

Our highly rated, friendly, and professional ASA instructors all have extensive sailing and cruising experience, including offshore sailing on our Caribbean Adventure Learning trips. In addition to personalized attention, you will receive tools, tips, and handouts that will truly enhance your learning experience. It’s important to maintain your skills, so we provide you with access to our sailboats at special student rates. Our Outbound Sailing Community program is designed to give our students plenty of opportunity to practice their skills and learn more by interacting with other sailors. You can go sailing with an instructor and 4 other students for 3 hours. We charge $25 per person. So you can see we are serious about helping you get time on the water.

Whether your plans include bareboat chartering, club membership, buying a boat, crewing on a friend’s boat, or simply day sailing, your Instructor will focus on those aspects of the course that will best help you achieve your sailing objectives.

So give us a call. You’ll be glad you did!
