Rated 4.9/5 by 12 students
I have been sailing with Island Sailing club since 2014. I started racing with the club regatta nights on Monday's, soon also racing a C&C 35 on the Columbia river and four Oregon Offshore races. I also enjoy less competitive sailing, taking my family on sailing on bareboat charters.

Mark is an excellent instructor. My wife and I are returning to sailing after a 4 year absence. We are both certified through the ASA but are taking the NauticEd courses as a refresher. Mark did an excellent job of working with us refreshing our sailing skills and knowledge.

Great class, and even with low wind Mark was able to get us out there and understand how to move the boat and cover all of the material. Super helpful, and exciting to get started sailing again!

Mark is a very knowledgeable, thorough instructor. I really appreciated his calm demeanor and practical, methodical approach. He provided a very strong footing with a lot of hands-on practice on the water for each student. The only thing I feel I need now is just more time skippering in order to feel fully confident in the skills Mark taught and that I’ve learned on NauticEd.

I'm a slow learner so I appreciate Mark's patience.
