Carl Richardson, Managing Director

 

One of the best ways to explore BC and much of the world is on a sailboat. We organize keelboat and cruising catamaran sailing adventures to sunny places providing opportunities to explore the world, build your sailing knowledge, seamanship skills and practical experience.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Dream . . . discover."
