Welcome to the wonderful world of boating!

 

 

The wonderful thing about sailing & powerboating is that it offers something for everyone. Fun, relaxing, rewarding, challenging, and adventurous are some of the words used by past students and fellow sailors to describe this enjoyable pasttime.

Boating for pleasure is more than a sport, it's a lifestyle. Join "the crew" to see why so many find it to be one of life's most rewarding experiences. Come aboard and discover for yourself how enjoyable and easy it is to experience this adventure.

Advantage Boating offers a variety of programs for both the novice and experienced boater alike. Adults and families can choose from any number of fun and exciting courses and services.
