Our Instructors

Our top rated and experienced instructors are not only USCG licensed captains and great boaters, but they know how to teach. On a scale of 1 to 5, 5 being best, our instructors' overall rating by students is consistently 4.9! All are patient, courteous and professional – and a lot of fun! Most importantly, they love to share their passion for cruising and want to see you succeed.

The goal of every San Juan Yachting/San Juan Sailing instructor is to help you achieve competence in all required skills while making sure everyone in the class has the most enjoyable learning experience possible. We have both male and female instructors and all are USCG Captains as well as certified through the Recreational Powerboating Association (power) and/or the American Sailing Association (sail). They’ll not only teach you the skills needed to head out on your own, but you’ll learn from their experiences and leave confident and able to continue to develop your boating skills. Our students agree, we know how to do it right. In fact, most of our new students come to us by referrals!
