The World Sail Philosophy:
World Sail Excursions believes the key to realizing the pleasures of sail in their highest form lie in a thorough understanding of sailing concepts and a robust set of sailing skills. Weather you are aboard for sail training or a Sailing Vacation, WSE´s commitment to good form ensures that your excursion will be one of your best vacations ever.
A Performing Art?
At the root of World Sail Excursions philosophy is a firm doctrine that a sailboat is among the very highest evolutions of form and function. It is not our aim to teach you how to safely get off the dock and under sail. Our aim is to impart the understand and skills that will transform the sport into a pleasant challenge of execution.
We don't teach you how to walk, we show you how to dance.

As Corban continues west around the world, opportunities are continually evolving for the WSE trainee to come aboard for Passage Making training. Participants are fully integrated into all activities including watch standing, navigation, sail evolutions at sea, heavy weather tactics, GPS, Radio and Radar operation, fishing at sea, food, water and cooking considerations, passage making theory, safety and preparation. The only way possible to understand and fully appreciate the sea and her boundless magic and wonder to sail over a distant horizon.
One of the only venues available to learn single-handed technique in a formal setting is aboard Corban. Dan has successfully sailed over 20,000 miles single-handed and developed a very systematic set of skills to aide the single-handed sailor and create safe environment and bring single or short-handed sailing into the reach of amateur sailors. This course is especially beneficial for the sailor who sails double handed with a crew whose enjoyment is focused more in the sailing environment rather than pulling the strings. This program has also received praise from skippers who sail with regular crews stating that their execution of maneuvers became much more fluid with an understanding of how sailing techniques can be executed single handedly.
