Hands-on training on YOUR vessel, customized to your goals and skill level.
Classroom courses teach theory. I teach you your boat. Training is conducted aboard your own vessel in the waters you actually run, built around the skills you want to build confidence in — close-quarters docking in a crosswind, anchoring overnight, running radar at night, or handing the helm to your spouse with confidence. As a National Safe Boating Council–accredited instructor and Merchant Marine officer with over 15,000 hours commanding high-speed craft, I’ve trained everyone from first-season owners to professional crews on 100+foot yachts. We go at your pace, and we don’t leave a skill until it’s yours
