Captain Eric Feldborg is ready to support your development as a sailor. His career in education (15 years of teaching high school science and a doctorate in education) carries over to teaching and learning on boats to provide you with highly personalized and effective instruction and practice.
Eric can meet you at your boat, or you can join him on one of his. You can choose from a 16' Cape Cod Mercury, a Rhodes 22, or a Menemsha 24.
Here's a list of typical topics developing sailors ask for:
Care and maintenance of all parts of the boat including sails and rigging
Coastal cruising - planning, logistics, provisioning (and cooking) navigation, arriving at a new port, docking, anchoring, dealing with weather, and more
Advanced sailing skills - sail trim, spinnakers, tactical decision making
Electronics - Making the most of your navigation systems and instruments
No matter what skills you want to develop, Eric can help.
