		<description>Last minute discounts are only given if there are still vacancies a week before course begin and occur usually only because of drop outs.

For the Ocean Hiker Live aboard course it is not necessarily a good gamble as maximum number of participants is only 3. 

As in your case the courses are all full because you were inquiring on the 16th for a course around the 19th. That is really to short to sign up for a course.

Generally speaking most courses are booked well in advance by paying a down payment of 50%.

On the starting page of this web site you can see all available courses scheduled and the amount of vacant places. If you would like to do a course yet at another date please inquire by mail so we can check what is possible. 

Thanks
I hope to see you one day sailing with us

		<description>Hi Marc,

thanks for your comment. Now to your questions.

Ocean Hiker Sailing School Thailand is a sub division of Island Cruises Co., Ltd., a yacht charter company located on the island Ko Tao. The founder and staff of this company are experienced cruising sailors sailing the seas of the planet. We are accredited with Australian, German and Thai maritime licenses.

The price of our competent crew course is by far not steep comparing them with sailing course prices i.e. in Phuket.
Spending 5000 TB per day on a Live aboard sailing course including food, accommodation and certification is rather a permanent special offer. Even though, some times we do have last minute offers for vacancies aboard with 20% discount. Check out: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ocean-hiker.com/last-minute-sailing-course-thailand&quot;&gt;http://www.ocean-hiker.com/last-minute-sailing-course-thailand&lt;/a&gt;   there is currently a live aboard sailing course available in mid December were you could get it all for less than 4000 TB a day. This means sailing yacht charter, sailing tuition plus food and accommodation and a quick stint into the Ang Thong marine park for less than a 100 Euro a day. Any questions??
If you really know some place which offers this kind of sailing package cheaper please be so kind an let me know.

Anyhow, I truly hope to see you down here on Koh Tao one day to join our Ocean Hiker sailing course.


Greetings Sash

		<description>Hi from BKK,  since your rates are quite steep for SE Asia please allow me some questions.
Who are you and what kind of background, formation and experience entitles you to teach newbies to become documented salty dogs?
