Kathy and I on boat me playing guitar Greetings!
Winter is now upon us and both of my boats are almost tucked away. The Sarah Maria is in the number one spot again this year at Bridge Marina, in Salisbury, and will be in the water hopefully by May 1st. The Bella Donna is at Overland Marine, all scrubbed down, and after some minor repair work, will be ready to be put in the water on May 1st as well. As you see Captain Ed's Sailing takes most of the year to run. Sails for both boats are in the Withum Sail loft being cleaned and repaired. New sail covers are being made for the Sarah Maria which will allow us to raise and lower that large main sail with a little more ease. As a boat built in the late seventies the Sarah Maria is taking well to modernization.
So with that all said the Christmas holiday is here and summer is right around the corner. Take advantage of the end of the season discounts with a Christmas gift certificate. After January 1st I will no longer be offering A five class sailing package, so this would be a great opportunity to buy this popular class at last years price. There are other coupons below as well, as I try to make Captain Ed's Sailing affordable for most budgets.
Me
Someone has to do it
Have a Merry Christmas 

I want to take this time to thank everyone for all of the support that I have received over the past year from clients, family, friends, and other businesses.

I want to thank John Savage, Rudy Jasper, Ed Ferris, Bob Mills, and Carol (the lady who owns Sea Castle). For allowing me to sail their boats, especially Rudy, Bob, and John who kept me busy out of season. I want to thank the Compass Rose, plus the others who never fail to open my newsletters. Also  EJ at Whole Music for his support as I started Captain Ed's Sailing in 2005, and for also being on my I pod when I needed to get away from the constant playing of Jimmy Buffet songs 24 hours a day while on my last delivery. Thanks to JC, Dori, and Karen for taking care of Mika the wonder dog while I was sailing south this past year as well. That was a big help and could not do this with out them. I also want to thank Paul Nguyen, and Bob Mills, plus anyone else who has submitted any photographs for my newsletters. 

   On the quick links section of this news letter is some links to web pages of people and businesses that have supported me this past year. Check them out by clicking on their links, you will find some cool stuff.

 Need training on your own boat ?

Captain Ed's Sailing will serve all of your sailing needs from helping you find a boat that will fit your needs to delivering and training you on that boat. 

Could you use a little refresher class or would you like to know how to change oil or winterize your boat . We do it all.

  I have a client out of Ipswitch Ma.  after taking my sailing class for a couple of years, has now purchased his own boat.  Each year Ed takes a refresher class, as I help him deliver his 25ft Catalina to Ipswitch in the spring and back to Newburyport in the fall. Ed is a great sailor but  is wise enough to realize that there is a lot to learn. During the last 2 trips back to Newburyport we hit some pretty windy weather and it was nice to be able to show him what his boat could actually do.
