Sailing School Unites Family Bonding with Eco-Friendly Experience

In its newest offering, Offshore Sailing School has created a program for families to invest in their futures with memorable, very affordable family learning vacations. Up to six family members can sail for the price of two in Florida or the New York metro area, representing a savings of up to 60%. When two adults pay tuition, additional children can learn absolutely free.

Fort Myers, FL, April 11, 2009 --(PR.com)-- "Families that learn together enjoy a special camaraderie and trust," explained Doris Colgate, President and CEO of Offshore Sailing School. "When sailing is the subject of that learning experience, grandparents and parents bond with the younger generation in a way unlike any other," she said.

On lakes, bays and oceans, sailing makes use of wind-driven power, not precious, carbon-making resources. "Because it's powered by wind alone, sailing is an activity that provides a wholesome, "green-good" feeling with memorable adventures, and that feeling is priceless," said Colgate.

Families learn on an award-winning Colgate 26 sailboats with a huge cockpit, small cabin to stow your gear while sailing, and plenty of go-fast features to keep everyone engaged. "When you spend a fun-filled vacation sharing tasks aboard, learning how to safely and confidently harness the wind while gaining a skill that lasts a lifetime, expect smiles and a great sense of achievement all around."

Offshore Sailing School was founded in 1964 by Steve Colgate in New York City. The school has seven locations in Florida, the Caribbean, New York and New Jersey, and covers instruction from Learn to Sail through Ocean Passage Making.
