There is no better way to learn your boat than with the guidance of professionals. Whether you own a new-to-you boat, are venturing offshore for the first time, or simply want to improve your skills and confidence, we’re here to help. Our private ocean sailing training and boat maintenance instruction are designed to prepare you to set sail safely and successfully. We’re happy to tailor your training to your specific goals and insurance qualification requirements.
In addition to hands-on sailing and maintenance training, we also offer owner assist training deliveries. We will join you aboard your boat to help you make a delivery or passage while providing training. Whether you’re bringing your boat to a new location or delivering it to a new owner, we’ll guide you through the process. It’s a fantastic opportunity to gain real-world experience while learning how to manage and maintain your vessel in the context of an actual delivery.
Our goal is to equip you not only with the sailing skills to confidently cruise on your own boat but also with the practical knowledge to handle maintenance and troubleshooting tasks should you need to. With our training, you’ll be prepared to cruise further and stay out longer, all while having the peace of mind that comes with knowing you have the skills to manage your boat safely and effectively.
