Captain Adam provided exceptional instruction and support during our recent boat commissioning. As new owners of a larger vessel, we greatly appreciated his calm and insightful approach. Despite challenging circumstances, including heavy traffic and the significant distractions of a nearby air show, Captain Adam expertly guided us, offering specific praise for our focus under pressure. His
‘astronaut test’ analogy for maintaining concentration during crucial moments was particularly insightful and a valuable lesson.
He also addressed a minor docking issue with patience and reassurance, emphasizing that such things are a normal part of the learning curve. Captain Adam clearly articulated the three fundamental principles of large boat operation – spatial awareness, momentum, and delayed response – which have already proven incredibly helpful.
Furthermore, Captain Adam was wonderful in including and encouraging my wife, Laurie, in the learning process, ensuring she feels confident as first mate.
Overall, Captain Adam’s expertise, clear communication, and encouraging demeanor have made the transition to owning our new boat a much smoother and more positive experience.
We highly recommend his services to anyone seeking professional and supportive boat Instruction.
Classes with Captain Ken and Captain Bill have been excellent.
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.”
