I have significant sailing experience, but not enough to skipper my own bareboat, and my husband and I were thinking it would be nice to have the opportunity to just go out the two of us sometimes.

What do you guys think is the best way to take sailing lessons in BVI? I think I would prefer to take a class where I'm also staying on the boat, but I would be open to staying on land as well.

Does anyone have an instructor or a company to recommend?

How important is it to get ASA or US Sailing certification?

The goal would be to take the lessons on the next trip (7-10 days) then on the following trip, we would book a bareboat with a captain for the first day or two, then it's just my husband and I off on our own for the rest of that week
