In the Instructor Evaluation Clinics I learned more in the few weeks of the series of clinics than over 20  years of sailing. (as a race boat owner and active sailor). The clinics (on-the-water and written tests) helped to fill in the blank spots I didn't know I had. They have been awesome. Feb 2025

Stopping by Sausalito on our charter of Angel, (35' FP Catamaran) we entangled the port prop and saildrive with a pool toy. Didn't know what in the ebb line was snagged at the time. We continuded using just one engine. Docking at Sam's restaurant on one engine was a fete'. Felt like a hero. Thanks for the amazing 114 sail training course.

Hi Mary and Afterguard Team,

What an AMAZING day out on the water! The youth had an incredible time sailing with Mary and Anthony. Your instructors were phenomenal, and the entire experience was truly memorable. I can't thank you enough for providing such an incredible opportunity for our group.
