September 13th-15th: The U.S. Sailing Basic Keelboat Class is designed for people who want a refresher or for those who have little to no experience. This is a three (3) day class, and the fee is $250 for members or $350 for non-members. Upon passing this course, you will receive your U.S. Sailing Basic Keelboat certification. This internationally recognized certification will allow you to bareboat charter keelboats up to 27’ almost anywhere in the world. It will also allow members to use SSBG sonars anytime SSBG is open, and boats that are not currently utilized in a program.
At its strategic perch overlooking Offatts Bayou, Sea Star Base Galveston (SSBG) resembles a five-star hotel beckoning guests to stop in. But looks can be deceiving. Sea Star Base Galveston is a youth based non-profit organization, and its mission is providing outstanding marine and aquatic programs where youth can learn teamwork and leadership skills, self-reliance and confidence, maritime career pathways, and independence of mind, body and spirit.
