Our Faculty

The Operations Team — Offshore Sailing School Managers and Instructors

Offshore Sailing School instructors are US Sailing certified to teach beginner through advanced passage making sailing courses. Those who teach power cruise courses hold US Sailing and US Powerboat instructor certifications too. From the day Steve Colgate opened his first school in Manhattan in 1964, he has insisted on sailing instructors with excellent eaching skills, keen sailing knowledge and extensive sailing experience in small and large cruising and racing boats. Offshore Sailing School instructors are men and women chosen for all of the above, plus humility, patience, dedication to you (our clients) and loyalty to Offshore Sailing School (the company). Here are some of the special people that deliver “exceeded my expectations” comments on almost every evaluation we receive back from our clients. If you would like to join our faculty, please see Employment Opportunities.

“Instructors I have encountered in the sailing world have been very good, but those with the Offshore Sailing School have been the best. The curriculum development with Offshore advances their instructors to the highest level. The Offshore instructors are following a well thought-out script.”
