I had met Bob and Dale Mills  back in the early 1980's.

As we were new boat owners we would sail our boats out of the Merrimac river together on short day sails . Some of those day sails could end up quite long as we would sometimes bite off more than we could chew.

As we became more experienced through the years we ventured farther away and would spend the night anchored out at the Isle of shoals at first, then up the Pescataqua river to Portsmouth where we would spend the weekend at the dock in Prescot park.

 Along the way we found that we could anchor off of Sandy Beach out side of Rockport harbor, and ended up spending many weekends there as well. 

Over the years  each of our boats got a little bigger and we would venture out along the coast of Maine, and south to Salem , Boston and Provencetown Massachusetts.

Over the year we covered a lot of local ground and made our fair share of mistakes as we made our own way, as there really was no training avalable.

 By taking the 5 class sailing package through Captain Ed's Sailing you don't have to make those mistakes. We will sail into the Ise of shoals and grab a mooring , and also over to Rockport and learn how to drop an anchor. You will learn what you need to know in order to run your own boat to sights unseen. My classes will make you a invaluable crew member on friends boats.

On the other hand if you have no intentions of owning your own boat my sailing package is a great way to get out sailing without the expence of boat ownership.

  On April 4th I will be heading down to Baltimore to help Bob Mills bring his new boat from Baltimore to Myrytle Beach where he now lives. I will be posting to face book each day if you would like to follow us. I am also hoping to get my bog up and running by then.
