The most common feedback I received from my students is "You are so calm and explain things in a simple manner to where it is easily understood. I believe though, that the experience of "doing" in many cases outweighs the explanation. My focus is to empower first, educate second. Bring each student to a place of complete competence which leads to confidence! More importantly, it's all about the experience, and to have fun along with the feeling of accomplishing something beyond expectations.

From the helm of a high-performance powerboat to the mast of a racing sloop, my life has been defined by the turquoise waters of the British Virgin Islands. I am Coach Javan—a lifelong mariner, dual-certified instructor, and the owner-operator of a premier BVI powerboat charter fleet. My sailing journey began on an Optimist at the tender age of 6 in Road Harbour. For the next decade, we (my fellow sailors and I) competed in a dozen regattas every year. Over the years, more than a dozen sailing instructors volunteered and poured into us to ensure that we would have the opportunity to become professional sailors. Our last regatta boat was a IC24 (a modified J/24). I continue to enjoy living on Tortola and working as a private boating coach at any charter company in The British Virgin Islands - The Sailing Capital of the World. I love nurturing boaters and the nautical lifestyle.
