Level V Bareboat Charter Master Rank Chief Sailing Instructor / Assessor

Rated 5/5 by 7 students
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 consummate professional and a superb instructor. I will never sail the same because of the two days spent under his tutelage.

Michael was great in all areas. He was very good at working through the testing while working with others on the boat to stay connected. He knows his stuff and his vast experience in both cruising and racing helps in making it all click. And with his RYA certifications he know the proper way to instruct. I enjoyed my time with Michael he make the week very enjoyable! A five star instructor.
