🧭 What to Expect:

Whether you want a relaxing sail, a hands-on sailing lesson, or a private celebration on the water, I’ll tailor the experience to you. We’ll explore scenic coves, spot local wildlife, and enjoy the calm and beauty of Long Island Sound. Bring your own food and beverages, or I can help arrange catering.

🧑‍✈️ About the Captain:

I’m your onboard captain and host. I know this boat intimately and the surrounding waters even better. Safety, fun, and a smooth sailing experience are my top priorities. You can sit back and relax—or help trim the sails and learn something new!

Earned my first boating license at age 13. Sailed a Pearson ensign 22 for several years I owned a Tartan 27 for a few years and a Catalina 22 for about 12 years. My current boat is a Pearson 303. I received my US Coast Guard OUPV captains license this past March. When you rent the Pearson 303, you will also have me as your captain, so no sailing experience is needed. You can help out if you wish or just relax and enjoy the sail. Wear appropriate boat shoes or white bottom sneakers. Barefoot is always fine. Any questions, just ask.
