Seattle Sailing Club

SSC offers sailing lessons from beginner to advanced. Our school is an American Sailing Association affiliate and upon completion of your lesson, we will proctor your certification exam. Once you've passed the ASA 101 "Basic Keelboat" and ASA 103 "Basic Coastal Cruising" lesson and exam you will be certified to skipper our boats under 30ft. Upon completion of ASA 104 "Bareboat Charter" lesson and exam you will be certified to skipper our boats up to 50ft. Checkout: If you're already certified or have years of sailing experience, we'll schedule a check-out sail with one of our USCG licensed instructors. Depending on your level of experience, you may choose to be checked out on boats under 30ft or boats up to 50ft. Once you've completed the checkout and the instructor has signed you off, you're ready to reserve your first boat! Now that I'm a member, how do I reserve a boat? Once you've become certified(ASA103 or higher) or passed your SSC checkout, you are now ready to reserve a boat! There are 2 ways to reserve a boat: by Phone (206)782-5100 or Email. Which ever is easier for you, works for us! When reserving a boat, please provide us with your name, club level, requested boat's name, day of pick up, and times you expect to pick up and bring back the boat. My favorite SSC memory was delivering Dolce Vita up to Anacortes, making 9 knots under sail into Port Townsend.
