"Power boater's want noise and speed, sailors only want the sound of  wind and waves ."

 

With iconic lighthouses, the historic charm of the Mid-Atlantic, and the expansive, protected waters of the Chesapeake, this is the premier training ground for the serious sailor. Whether you are navigating the bay’s hidden gems or finding solitude in its quiet coves, the Chesapeake offers a diverse and rewarding environment to sharpen your skills.

​

Our programs are fully catered on board a fully equipped sailing vessel, designed to ensure that by week’s end, you are handling the helm with precision. We prioritize a composed, professional learning environment - no shouting or high-stress drills - just the steady development of confidence between you and your crew. It is about achieving fluency and calm in every maneuver.

​

From mastering sail trim to docking in complex tidal currents, our curriculum provides the technical competence you need. You will depart with the refined techniques required to work harmoniously with your crew and the authority to handle whatever the Bay or the open ocean demands.
