Level V Bareboat Charter Master Rank Chief Sailing Instructor / Assessor

Intern Powerboat Instructor / Assessor

I started sailing as a sea scout when I was a child. I've been teaching sailing for over 25 years first in New York and then for the past 20 years, I have been teaching exclusively in the British Virgin Islands and as well as the Windward Islands. I run weeklong customized training programs for private groups. I am able to perform the SLC assessment although, for the BVI, I prefer to run the assessment over a weeklong program. I specialize in Catamaran training - especially maneuvering. I am a patient coach and enjoy the environment of a family or groups of friends.

Michael is a very knowledgeable sailor. His depth of understanding allows him to be a patient teacher and evaluator. I enjoyed spending the day with him and look forward to my next time on the water with him.
