WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ...

James was amazing. His skill and teaching level matched his personality and patience. The entire experience was fun, instructive and challenging. James prepared our entire boat and crew extremely well for the whole experience. I would definitely recommend students study under James's instruction and I hope to sail with him again!
