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

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 2 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 the “hands on” time is all yours; not divided among several students. 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 instructors all have 20+ years of sailing/cruising experience. Each has all of the appropriate ASA Instructor Certifications and are USCG licensed Captains. In addition to personalized attention, you will receive tools, tips, and handouts that will truly enhance your learning experience, plus we provide you with tools to help you retain what you’ve learned. It’s important to practice what you learned, so we provide you with access to our sailboats at a special student rental rate.

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!
