Personalized Boating Instruction

Are you brand-new to boating?

Are you looking for Bareboat Charter Certification?

Are you already a boat-owner and looking for topic-specific instruction in general boat-handling & docking, anchoring & mooring, pilotage & navigation, person overboard retrieval procedures or sail-trim?

Perhaps you have recently upgraded and would appreciate some assistance in becoming more confident in operating a larger, heavier-displacement vessel?

Do you need help with coastal or celestial navigation? 

Whether you already own or are thinking about purchasing a monohull sailboat, sail- or power catamaran, trawler, tug or motor-yacht, we would be delighted to help, either on your boat or one of the many modern boats available for charter in the Chesapeake Bay.

With a combined 50 years of professional instruction experience, including certification by the American Sailing Association, plus the benefit of thousands of miles sailing in local and coastal waters, the ICW, the Caribbean, the Gulf of Mexico, the U.S. East Coast and trans-Atlantic, Capt. Jeremy Hopkins, Capt Gary Hutson and Capt. Bill England are committed to providing the highest quality, best value and most fun sailing instruction services.
