Ron, your lifetime commitment to introduce people to sailing, teach, coach, mentor has touched so many . Enabling the average guy to try sailing without investing in ownership has opened the door for so many who have become sailers and boat owners. This has affected peoples lives in such a positive way, the sailing lifestyle in our own city. Advantage Boating has made it available to anyone to become competent sailers, most would have had no other way to get into keelboats short of buying one. A great many if those people have become our long time friends, because you made them sailers.

Wow, what an adventure! ⛵️ Four days on the water with calm days to relax and a windy one to really test your skills—sounds perfect! We cant wait to have you join us for a bareboat charter in the Caribbean.

The struggle is real. 😂 When you’re packing for vacation, suddenly every outfit feels essential. 😅 

But on a boat?⛵️ Its a whole different story—those same shorts and t-shirt might just get worn for 7 days straight! 😎

So true! Don’t forget the bathing suit! 👙

Sailing isn’t just a hobby—it’s a lifestyle. ⛵️

There’s something magical about being on the water, with the wind in your sails and the world slowing down around you. It’s about living in the moment, finding peace, and embracing the freedom that comes with it.

Whether you’re out for a relaxing afternoon or taking on a longer adventure, sailing has a way of reconnecting you to what truly matters.

LIVE. LOVE. SAIL. It’s not just a motto, it’s a way of life. 🌊  Basic Cruising graduates will receive this great T-shirt when they finish the course!

Very true. There’s the planning for sailing, the time teaching sailing, the prepping the boat for sailing, the actual sailing, the meetings about sailing, and the parties reminiscing about sailing. It’s basically a full-time job. 😂

Totally. Can’t wait to be on the water this summer.

I still wear mine proudly on occasion 😇
