Certification Tests

NMHF intends to certify student members with the nationally recognized standard US Sailing Small Boat Level 1 certification (USSL1).

NMHF Members who pass this certification test gain access to rent from our fleet of brand new Flying Scots. If you are a seasoned sailor and do not need to take beginner courses, you may also gain access to rent if you pass a checkout sail.

Our Beginner Lessons include an optional Capsize Course, which is necessary to complete your US Sailing Level 1 Small Boat Certification.

This certification is internationally recognized and we recommend our members to attain it if they plan on sailing outside of the NMHF facilities.
