Here's a description of the class from the Coast Guard Auxiliary website: "Sailing Skills and Seamanship is a comprehensive course that will prepare a sailor with the basic information needed to operate sail boats under a variety of conditions. The course book has been fully updated and the course is NASBLA approved. "Topics include: What is a sailboat; how a boat sails; sailboat maneuvering; legal requirements; aids to navigation; rigging; handling; tuning and heavy weather; navigation rules; marlinspike seamanship; sailboat engines; trailering; weather; radiotelephone; inland waterways, locks, and dams; and piloting. "Many insurance companies will offer discounts on boat insurance to individuals who successfully complete this course. Individuals who successfully complete the course and exam are awarded certificates." Note re location: The building with the big "Sausalito Cruising Club" sign along the waterfront in this area is actually a beautiful vintage boat moored in the harbor in this area. It's floating on the water, not mid-block as the Google Maps pointer below indicates. You'll see it about 1 inch (on typical screen sizes) to the upper right of the Google Maps pointer.
