Imagine waking up to warm Caribbean breezes instead of scraping ice off your windshield. ☀️⛵️

This winter, swap snow boots for bare feet and join us in the British Virgin Islands for an unforgettable week at sea. 🇻🇬🌊

We’ve got just two spots left in our 2026 BVI Sailing Courses — one in Basic Cruising (Jan 31–Feb 7) and one in Intermediate Cruising (Feb 14–21). 🗓️

Spend eight incredible days learning the ropes with Sail Canada–certified instruction, earning your cruising certification, and exploring the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, where learning feels more like adventure than instruction.

Everything you need is included — expert instruction, course materials, meals, snorkelling gear, permits, and more. Plus, you can add IYT (ICC & IBS) certifications to your credentials!🌟

Your place on deck is waiting — reserve it before it sails away! ⛵️🌴👉www.advantageboating.com/boating-vacations/…

Ever dreamed of sailing through the Greek islands? ⛵🤔🇬🇷

Come with us on a two-week hosted flotilla through the Dodecanese Islands — 15 days of sunshine, turquoise waters, and the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.

We’ll cruise the Aegean from island to island, stop for swims in hidden bays, and spend evenings enjoying delicious food and local hospitality. 🍷

Our flotilla leaders handle the logistics so you can focus on soaking it all in — the views, the friendships, and those unforgettable sunsets. 🌅

It’s the ultimate Greek sailing experience — and all you have to do is step aboard!

RSVP for today’s 1PM info session here (in-person at Nepean Sailing Club or via zoom)! 👉
