Our unique approach to education permits convenient training at your leisure here in Atlanta for as long as YOU require.  When you feel your skills and knowledge are ready for the next step, you then transition those skills to a coastal location where tides, navigation aids and coastal weather complete your training.

This class will ensure that your first charter experience will be memorable for all the right reasons!  Success requires judgment and judgment requires experience.  Our programs enable YOU to decide how much practice time YOU require to ensure your success.
