Overwhelmed by the thought of pulling up to dock of a restaurant, or the sandbar full of boats and having to maneuver between boats? A captain can teach you the skills to master docking, anchoring and maneuvering around other boats.

Try boating before investing in a new purchase.

Not sure if boating right for you? Some of our captains will give you training on their boat to see if boating is right for you before investing in a new vessel. You can also rent a boat for the day.

My 15 year old son and I had the pleasure of learning all aspects of boat safety and management on our ‘17 Whaler from Captain Scott Schmidt.  He has a wonderful way about him and his knowledge of all things boat and water ways related was evident from the start.  He left us with a much greater comfort level than when we began.  We would definitely recommend him to anyone interested in becoming more “Boat Savvy.”

Cambridge, Maryland, 21613

Situated on the Choptank River, a major tributary of the Chesapeake Bay, Cambridge is one of Maryland’s oldest colonial cities. The city features extensive waterfront along both the Choptank River and Cambridge Creek, which cuts through the heart of the historic district. Notable landmarks include the Richardson Maritime Museum, Long Wharf Park, and the historic Sailwinds Park with its public beach. The deep waters of the Choptank River provide excellent opportunities for both commercial and recreational boating, while numerous creeks and inlets offer protected waters for kayaking and fishing.
