J World Sailing Instruction Pricing & Payment Policies

So how much is the best sailing school in the country going to cost you?  Not nearly as much as you might think.  And not nearly as much as most other programs.  Our per-hour and per-day cost of instruction is about the lowest of you will find amongst reputable organizations.  You will learn more at J World, and you will learn on only the best sailing equipment. 

We encourage you to look around.   Talk to sailors.  Do some research.  Come by and visit our facilities.  The more you look into the details of the boats, the curriculum, the locations, and the staff, the more likely it is that you will end up at J World!
