I have been sailing on the Hudson River, around New York City, for over 30 years and love sharing my knowledge, experience, passion, and enjoyment of sailing and New York City/ Hudson River history with sailing students and charterers alike. I am also a New York City licensed Sightseeing Guide. I have also logged extensive sailing hours on the Chesapeake Bay and in the British Virgin Islands. I am have American Sailing Association certifications up to Coastal Navigation (ASA 105), plus Basic, Coastal, and Bareboat Sailing Instructor certificates, and I’m licensed by the United States Coast Guard. I am a graduate of Lehigh University. When not sailing, I am an avid photographer and a member of the New York City rock-n-roll cover band, “OTTO,” where I’m the drummer, and would drive the band boat, if we had one.

Wednesday, June 11, 2025 Atlantic Yachting's practice sail. Gorgeous conditions.
Strong ebb, light wind.
Even though we didn’t get far, we’re a long way from where we started.
Our annual trip down the Hudson to kick off our sailing season!
