Windward Seaventure Sailing School is proud to have as its headsailing instructor, Tommy Williams. Tommy was named American Sailing Asociation, Instructor of the year in 2002, 2005 and 2006. He was voted this award by those thatcount the most, his students. At Windward Seaventure Sailing School our students learn on "Adult" sized boats, fully equiped late model Beneteau and Hunter 31-38 foot sailboats, and sail on Galveston Bay not Clear Lake.Check out other schools and you find they train on day sailors or small boats which will not prepare you for larger boat experience. Why? We beleive in training on boats similar to what you may want to charter or own one day. And get familar with the Galveston Bay where you will one day be sailing.Our boats offer large comfortable cockpits, wheel steering, inboard diesels, instrumentation and of course a full head in case you need to use one while underway. Our sailing school lesson classes are limited to a maximum of 4 for both classroom and on the water training. Our goal is to give each student maximum attention from their instructor whether in the class roomor on the water. Imagine a crowded class room or boat load of students and an instructor on a 21 to 23 foot sailboat and you will realize what sets us apart. When you are ready to move up to offshore training you will train on a fully equiped cruising boat. Our Late model (1998-2005 Hunter 37-42 footers) offers every convience for live aboard and offshore sailing. When you compare our approach to training and the boats you will train onyou will realize why we offer the best on Galveston Bay. We are also the only ASA training facility that offers late modelsailboats for charter after you graduate, and you get 15% off any charter for one full year with no yearly or club dues to pay. If you are comparing sailing schools, come by or check out our fleet on this site and see the exciting boats you will be able to charter and further your sailing skills on. Come by and visit us.
