Personalised Sailing Training & Boutique Bareboating.
Special Services for Special People
YachtPro aims to make your sail training or holiday
sailing in Paradise as enjoyable and rewarding as we can.
We take pride in offering you the highest standard of personal attention
possible.
While our standard course formats are tailored to meet most people
requirements, running Group, 2 Student and Private classes. We are
happy to design custom formats to meet your own needs.
We call our charter service Boutique as we are happy
to assist, advise, and plan your sail with you rather than adopt
a pick and go to the cashier approach of the Supermarket.
The enthusiasm and broad experience our team brings to sailing,
results in a range of services that include unique perspectives.
From the moment you arrive to the time you leave, our sailing and
administration resources are available. We are here to ensure you
have a special time and to provide a comprehensive local resource
for you.
YachtPro differs to most sailing companies in that all our shareholders
are active sailors whose stated aim is to promote sailing as a sport
and to further sailing in Thailand .
In Thailand, private businesses like ours generate a family feeling.
Many of our clients return often and have become part of our extended
family; we hope you do too.
Everyone at Yachtpro lives here, and has sailed here for years;
our experience and local knowledge sets us apart.
We operate our own yachts, which we maintain ourselves; we are not
an agent.
We love sailing and the area we sail in and will do everything possible
to make sure that you do too.
The awesome islands and caves of Phang Nga Bay, the beautiful palmed
fringed beaches and crystal waters that surround Krabi and the magical
islands of our Sailing Area are a bonus.
2007 will see:
• New boats arriving in Phuket and Pattaya.
• Introduction of some new courses, that you will find here
• A new 2.5% direct payment discount on all course and bareboat
charter fees.
• A new client loyalty discount on bareboat charter fees.
Sailing
Courses
The primary focus of our courses is to enable you to attain
your personal goals in sailing. We are here to teach you to sail
competently, confidently and safely.
We view the internationally accredited certificates you attain on
successful course completion as a testament to your proven ability,
rather than the goal...there is a big difference.
We are accredited with the International Sailing Schools Association,
American Sailing Association and Australian Yachting Federation.
Our courses are formatted on an optimum instructor:student ratio.
We recommend a maximum of three students per course but will take
more on request and we will generally provide instructor assistants.
The application of this instructor:student ratio is calculated quite
simply:
3 students & one instructor for 5 days = Instructor time/Student
= 5/3 = 1.66 days
2 students & one instructor for 4 days = Instructor time/Student
= 4/2 = 2.00 days
>>Start
Sailing Courses are for those of you with little or
no sailing experience . They range from a quick introduction
to a full 3 day course.

certificate) Course formats enable you to progress from novice

Advice on Choosing a Sailing
School
Whether you are starting or continuing your sail training, it is
very important that you choose a school that meets your requirements.
We know that this choice is difficult for the new sailor as you
will have little or no direct experience of the sport to base your
decision on.
We encourage you to evaluate all your options and ask questions
of the schools you contact to ensure they can meet your needs.
The information in our course pages should give you a good idea
of our facility.
Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you have.

& Charter
Our boutique bareboat service is tailored for couples,
families or small groups and is structured progressively to ensure
you get the appropriate level of service, whether sailing for hours

About our Website
It is our policy that all the sailing and area photographs

so hopefully you will get a real feel of Sailing in Paradise, although
with the addition of the new yachts we will need to use manufacturers
photo's until we have our own.
