Review: Great Sailing Education
Course: ASA 101, 103 and 104.
My wife and I researched the Inet extensively for reviews and opinions on sailing schools. While the search revealed dizzying results, we based our selection on location, years in business and customer service. My first contact and subsequent email/phone contacts with RSSS answered all questions. When we arrived at Nanny Cay Resort in the BVI, the staff was friendly and accomodating. On the first day, the RSSS office staff was very organized and friendly. While we were concerned with taking these courses in 7 days, our instructor Ken Roach, was patient and very talented when working with 4 students. I highly recommend RSSS.

Review: Live Aboard Cruising / Coastal Nav Tortola
A tremendous experience. Instruction was top notch. Much better instruction than Basic Keelboat at other company. This was six days of intensive sailing, anchoring, docking and drills. I am a much improved sailor.

Review: Great School Great Instruction
Rob Swaing Sailing School was great for our basic keelboat class. We had 3 students in our class so it was great for lots of hands on. The facilities at Nanny Cay and the sailing school were great. The IC24 was a great little boat to learn on.

Review: Great program & great instruction
Sailed with Rob in both Newport, RI and in Tortolla, BVI and had a fantastic experience. His sailing knowledge and expertise was far superior to what we've seen in the past. I highly recommend Rob Swain Sailing School.
