TESTIMONIES: "Lauren taught me and my husband how to sail a huge catamaran in the BVI's, and not only was she a superb instructor with a lot of knowledge, she was patient and kind and fun. She also taught us about provisioning, and trip planning, and navigation and anchoring. I finished the week full of confidence in myself as a skipper and excited to continue my life as a cruising captain!" Beth M.
"Lauren was my sailing instructor for an adult class at the Half Moon Bay Yacht Club. She made classroom knowledge easy to understand, and as a beginner gave me the necessary on the water confidence to learn new skills. Not to mention her enthusiasm for sailing and all things having to do with the ocean keeps things fun and seemingly easy. Since those first tacks and jibes I have had the pleasure of sailing with Lauren on a coastal cruise in a keel boat as well as dinghy racing. She has safety in mind first and is cool headed. Highly recommended but watch out - you might get hooked too!" Sylvia T.
"Lauren was my instructor at the recent Women's Sailing Seminar in Alameda. She is a patient and careful instructor who is passionate about all aspects of sailing. She brings a wealth of experience and sailing credentials, and also tailors her instruction to what students want to focus on and learn. Highly recommend." Karen A.
"I learned to sail about 5 years ago with Lauren. She is very organized, prepared, and puts safety first as it should be. Her classroom portion was very easy to follow and prepared us well for the on the water part of the course. She knows sailing, racing, boats and San Francisco Bay. Sign up with Lauren and you will get the best sailing education out there." Martha B.
"Lauren is a patient, experienced and amazing sailing instructor! I had the pleasure of having Lauren as my instructor for a "Take the Tiller" advanced sailing class. I was able to review my existing skills and learn some brand new man overboard drills and docking skills. You will not be disappointed. Lauren quite simply rocks!" Nancy G.
"I bought a used sailboat to learn how to sail. Cart before the horse. I met Lauren randomly during my ferry commute. Upon learning she specialized in teaching women how to sail and maintain boats, I enlisted her for a lesson. Lauren came to my boat to take me out for a basic course. However, upon realizing it needed some work before it could be sailed, she not only did a thorough inspection, informing me what needed to be done and how, she also helped me give it a good scrub down, to include the sails. When I'm ready lessons, I'll be calling Lauren." Nimmi S.
