A life-long sailor, Frank has sailed the
Pacific, Atlantic and Caribbean waters. He holds a USCG 50 ton, near
coastal rating and ASA Instructor certifications for 101, 103, 104, 105,
106 & 118. He has delivered boats along the US East Coast and operates
executive leadership and team building on the high seas and seminars on
the Chesapeake.
In his other life, Frank is a health
educator for a company that develops prevention and wellness programs
for underserved communities. He takes particular satisfaction
introducing new sailors to the sport and watching them advance. Frank
sails out of Baltimore Yacht Club aboard his Pearson 30, IMAGINE,
and teaches at our basic sailing level.
"Learning from and meeting Captain Frank McKee has been a life
changing experience. He is brilliant, interesting, wise and so much fun
to be around! Captain McKee's adroitness in teaching and ability to
explain and demonstrate the whys as well as the hows of sailing - with
emphasis on anticipation and preparation goes beyond competency
standards for both sailing knowledge and on-the-water skills. He
achieves the perfect balance between transferring his adept sailing
skills and engaging all students in a truly cooperative effort to share
in a unique camaraderie. This is only the beginning of my sailing
adventures, and I couldn't have had a better Instructor."
