What Our Students Say…
I was really intimidated by the idea of sailing. A private lesson was the perfect solution. My instructor was patient and focused entirely on me. After just a few lessons, I felt confident enough to handle the boat myself. Unbelievable!
Angela Graham, San Francisco, CA
I took a group class elsewhere and barely got to touch the wheel. One private lesson with Passage Nautical taught me more than that entire weekend course. It’s a night and day difference.
Nathan Brock, Oakland, CA
My wife and I wanted to learn together. The private lessons were perfect for us. We learned as a team and are now planning our first charter trip! Worth every penny.
