Learning should be FUN! Whether sailing in Southern California or Pacific Northwest, I strive to help prepare students for their on the water experience so they can get the most value out of their time on the water and with me. I want you to achieve your sailing goals while also enjoying the sailing lifestyle. I've been around boats all my life, and started sailing about 22 years ago in the desert southwest (yep! in Arizona!) Over that time, I've raced and cruised on the Great Lakes, the USVI, Southern California, the Pacific Northwest, and more. I enjoy sharing that experience with others and helping them achieve their goals. So how can I help you enjoy the Sailing Lifestyle while being safe and making good decisions.
