Your time is your most valuable asset, and how you spend it matters. When learning to boat, you want to get the most out of every minute—not sit through unnecessary classroom hours or wait your turn in a group setting. Private lessons with 24/7 online learning are the smartest, most efficient way to gain confidence on the water without wasting time.

Retention & Learning Rates Matter
Studies show that traditional lectures and group learning have retention rates of only 5%–20%, while one-on-one learning boosts retention to 50%–90%.

  • One-on-one private lessons = Faster learning & longer retention:  Receive personalized attention from your instructor. Get immediate feedback, targeted instruction, and a learning plan tailored to your needs and learning style. Learn faster and have longer retention.
  • Self-paced online learning = Higher engagement & mastery:  Work at your own pace and on your schedule. Review concepts and skill drills before each session and review after. Deepen your understanding and mastery of the topics.
  • Group classes (4+ people) = Less hands-on time & lower retention:  Group classes have reduced opportunities for “your time on deck” and individual attention. Less active participation and personalized feedback means slow progress and frustration.

Value Your Time & Your Learning Style – Everyone learns differently, and group classes force you into a one-size-fits-all approach. With private lessons, you get an instructor who matches your communication style, so every session is focused, efficient, and built around how YOU learn best.

Faster Progress, Bigger Payoff – In a group class of four or more, your hands-on time is limited. With private instruction, every second is about YOU, your skills, and your confidence, making your learning faster and more effective.
