We
received this note
from Becky Blanton who took an ASA101 course with us in June 2016

What a beautiful, fantastic marina! The site and location
were superb. The boat was roomy, warm or cool as needed, thanks to the heating
and AC. And, the days on the water - although in driving rain and cold for two
days, were still so packed with information and hands-on opportunities, I felt
like I got the real sailing experience. The last two days were sunny and warm
and perfect. I think we all got a true picture of what sailing is all about.
Love, love, love it.
Robin is fantastic. If you can take a class with her - do so. She's patient,
funny, knowledgeable and one of the most fun instructors of any topic I've ever
had. She knows how to make sailing a fun learning experience. Can't say enough
good stuff about her. Very casual, but very professional. I felt like a good
friend took me by the hand and taught me to sail. I got a 99 out of 100 on the
test, so I know she did her job. Excellent!
From Rita, to Frank to Robin, ALL the staff I encountered throughout my journey
have been awesome. Rita patiently answered all my questions prior to the class,
and then Frank and Robin did the rest. The boat was spotlessly clean, the berths
comfortable. All my classmates reported sleeping the best they ever have every
night. I think the opportunity to sleep on board the boat during the class is
genius. It gave me the true experience of "living aboard." At the end
of the day we all drove into town for dinner, although there was the option of
cooking, but the staff just made everything welcoming.
The sole reason I picked your school was that you offered women only classes.
Then I saw your slogan that said "Safe sailing, not shortcuts" or
something like that. I want to learn to do something and do it right. I want
safety, not shortcuts. I liked that a lot. Great time! I really, really, really
had a good week. Robin was wonderful, and I enjoyed even the rainy, cold days.
And I LOVE Gybing!!
