| Notes | Join the Premier Sailing School in Northern California For over 45 years, we have been a leader in sailing education, consistently ranked among the top sailing schools in the United States. Our commitment to excellence, innovative teaching methods, and outstanding student experience make us the best in the industry. Located in downtown San Francisco at South Beach Harbor—right next to Oracle Park—our base is in one of the finest marinas on the West Coast. With no long channels to navigate, you’ll be sailing just five minutes after leaving the dock. While a USCG license is great to have, it is not required to join our team. We take pride in having the youngest and best-maintained fleet on the West Coast, featuring high-performance boats such as the Andrews 21, J/80, and J/105. To ensure top-quality instruction, we keep class sizes small—just two students per instructor at the Basic Keelboat Sailing (BKS) level and three students at the Basic Coastal Cruising (BCC) level—providing a semi-private learning experience that produces the best sailors possible. We offer both part-time and full-time positions, with competitive pay starting at $25 per hour. If you also skipper charters, tips can be highly lucrative, often bringing total earnings to $50+ per hour. Many of our team members have been with us for over 30 years, a testament to our incredible work environment. Join the best crew in the country and be part of a school that lives by the motto: "We Are in the Fun Business – If We're Not Having It, They're Not Buying It." |
