AI PHONE AGENTS FOR

Sailing Schools

THE LAST PHONE AGENT YOU'LL EVER HAVE TO TRAIN

You're teaching students how to tack in 15-knot winds when your phone buzzes back at the marina. By the time you dock, debrief, and check messages, that couple wanting ASA 101 certification has enrolled with another school. AI answers every call, books lessons, and explains certification paths—even while you're on the water.

Sound Familiar?

Every sailing school owner knows these frustrations.

🌊

Teaching All Day on the Water

Your lessons run 4-8 hours each. You're instructing students, handling sails, navigating—there's no time to answer the phone while underway.

📚

Complex Course Explanations

"What's the difference between ASA 101 and 103?" "Do I need experience?" "What comes after bareboat?" Every caller needs the curriculum explained. It takes forever.

📅

Multi-Day Scheduling Nightmares

Weekend courses, week-long liveaboards, private lessons across multiple dates—coordinating schedules over voicemail tag takes days.

🌍

Dream Chasers Call Late

People planning sailing dreams research at night. They call at 9pm excited about finally learning. By morning, they've moved on or found someone else.

👥

Couples and Groups

Friends want to learn together. Couples want certification before a charter vacation. Coordinating multiple students with complex availability is a juggling act.

🌤️

Weather-Dependent Business

Good sailing days mean you're out teaching. Rainy days mean everyone's calling to reschedule. You can't win—someone's always waiting.

A Day in the Life of a Sailing School Owner

Why sailing schools have a unique phone problem.

Your Classroom Is the Water

Unlike classroom-based education, sailing instruction happens on a boat. Your lessons run 4-8 hours each day. You're actively teaching—demonstrating points of sail, coaching maneuvers, ensuring safety. You can't pause to take phone calls.

Peak inquiry hours are evenings and weekends when people have time to research their sailing dreams. You're either out teaching or recovering from a full day on the water. Those calls go to voicemail—if callers leave one at all.

Certification courses are high-value, multi-day commitments. ASA 101 is $800-$1,200. Bareboat certification is $1,500-$2,500. Week-long liveaboards are $3,000-$5,000. These require detailed conversations about schedules, prerequisites, and expectations. One missed call can cost you a student's entire sailing education.

Every Missed Call Has a Price Tag

An intro lesson is $300-$500. A certification course is $800-$2,500. A liveaboard program is $3,000-$5,000. Each missed call during sailing season is real revenue lost. The AI costs $250/month.

👤
Hi! My wife and I are planning a bareboat charter in the Caribbean next spring. We've never sailed before. What do we need to do to get certified?
💬
That's exciting! For bareboat chartering, you'll want ASA 101 Basic Keelboat and ASA 103 Coastal Cruising certifications—that's the standard most charter companies require. We can get you both certified in as little as two weekends. Have you sailed at all before?
👤
Never. Complete beginners. How does that work—two separate courses?
💬
Great question! ASA 101 covers the fundamentals—sailing theory, points of sail, tacking, gybing, crew commands. It's a weekend course, Saturday and Sunday. Then ASA 103 is the next level—navigation, anchoring, cruising skills. Also a weekend. We recommend at least one week between them to practice what you learned.
👤
That makes sense. What does the full certification package cost for both of us?

💬
For the couples certification package—both ASA 101 and 103 for two students—that's $2,800 total. That includes all instruction, boat time, study materials, and certification fees. I have ASA 101 openings December 14-15 or December 21-22. Which weekend works better for you two?
👤
December 14-15 works! And then when would we do the 103?
💬
Perfect! For ASA 103, I'd recommend January 4-5 or January 11-12—gives you a few weeks to let the 101 skills sink in. Which of those works?
👤
January 11-12 is better. Let's book both!

You're all set! ASA 101 December 14-15, then ASA 103 January 11-12. I'm texting you confirmation with what to wear, what to bring, and links to the online pre-course materials. Start reviewing those before class—it'll make your first day much smoother. Any questions?
👤
This is amazing! We're finally doing this. Thank you!
💬
You're going to love it—and the Caribbean is going to be incredible! See you December 14th. Fair winds!

Owner Review

After 30 days with AI agent
"I was missing calls constantly—out teaching 6 hours a day, every day in summer. The AI enrolled 11 new students in its first month, including a couples package for $2,800 that came in at 9pm on a Thursday. That one booking paid for almost a year of service."
