Instructor Qualifications
All Delmarva Sailing School sailing instructors have, as minimum, their US Coast Guard Captain's license and are certified ASA Instructors. In addition to our captains having excellent credentials, each is hand-picked for their patient and caring attitude when it comes to teaching students how to sail. Our instructors have been selected by ASA for their highest award, the designation of "Outstanding Instructor" in 2009, 2012, 2018, 2020, and 2021.
