What Our Students Are Saying
My week at WoodenBoat School was a magical time. Everything was taken care of beautifully. The feeling of warmth and welcoming is pervasive throughout the school. My sailing instructors were delightful. I became more and more comfortable on the water as my course progressed. I knew nothing about wind, only to be fearful and respectful. But now I watch it, study it, and understand it. Thank you all so much.

Being able to take a class at the WoodenBoat School campus was a dream – the perfect classroom. This was a great experience to share with my mom and I will always remember it.

The physical facilities of WoodenBoat School are outstanding, the working environment in the shop is incredible, and the welcoming nature of every staff member made us feel at home throughout our week on campus.

I have come from the school of hard knocks when it comes to sailing where if you made a mistake you were an idiot. This was just the opposite. A school of gentle instruction where mistakes were welcome. I learned so much in this environment and really appreciated the relaxed attitude and excellent instruction.
