"Always Private"

With Latitude Sailing your training is ALWAYS PRIVATE, either individual instruction or couple/partner courses.


This means that your class is never cancelled or rescheduled due to lack of students and you have more time at the helm and sailing, allowing more practical individual time on the water.


Private instruction means that the pace of training and focus of the instruction is always about your capabilities, allowing us to focus more on what YOUR specific needs are , enhancing your training experience.








"Always Personalized"

With Latitude Sailing your training is ALWAYS PERSONALIZED, with every training experience being custom designed for YOU.


While Nanaimo, BC is the main base of operations and our primary departure point for training, depending on circumstances, you can begin and end your training journey at a variety of locations including:

  • Nanaimo, Victoria, Vancouver, Powell River,  Someplace else - just ask us!


This allows you to choose from the best sailing locations in British Columbia for your training ground.






"Always About YOU!"

  • Choosing the date and time your training begins (based on availability)
