Instructors used by
Allabroad.
If you have used sailing schools before and are not impressed be refreshed
by our youthful well trained instructors.
Allabroad has a large range of instructors at its disposal old enough to
have the skills and experience to teach you with patience and skill yet
young enough to know all the latest methods of teaching and keep the course
interesting and exciting.
Allabroad has always provided first class instructors
and has a wealth of skills at its fingertips.
All instructors have to either have been home trained or are checked out
carefully before being allowed to teach our valued students.
This encourages new ideas, teaching methods and helps to keep instructors
refreshed.
At Allabroad you will find the level of fully
qualified RYA instructors is second to non.
All the sailing schools in Gibraltar have or are using Allabroad trained
instructors.

Feedback.
Dear ASA,
I've now had a few days to recover
and take stock of my two-week sailing Yachtmaster prep and exam. I'd
just like to thank everyone at ASA who helped it all go so smoothly
and enjoyably. It was an excellent two weeks and most of the thanks
should go to Sean 'The Magician' for his hard work, patience and
sense of humor. Without him the results on the exam day would have
been very different.
Thanks to ASA I can now head off to Croatia
and pursue my dream Skipper job. If all goes well I will be back for
the Cruising Instructor course in November.
Good luck to Sean in his refresher course -
it'll be a breeze!
Hope to catch up with you all in November,
have a great summer.
Best regards,
Darren
