ASA Sailing School
Capt. Dan offers one-on-one sailing lessons for beginners as well as experienced sailors from other regions. Lessons are tailored to your needs. If you’ve got someone you plan to sail with more than occasionally – a significant other, for instance – Capt. Dan will train you both. Private lessons make the best use of your time. You work on the skills you need and practice
until you’re both competent and confident. Most beginning sailing courses get you ready for sailing on small lakes, but this is the Pacific. Most times, this part of our ocean is benign, but you have to be ready for the times when she acts up. You also have to have navigation skills to deal with commercial traffic and occasionally tricky anchorages.

Ceremonies
Capt. Dan is also Chaplain Dan and he is ready to help you tie the knot or say goodbye to a loved one with joy, care and dignity. Capt. Dan’s ceremonies are unique and surprisingly inexpensive. Weddings are typically aboard Sancerre, but can be on Wiley or at any California location you choose. Call 805.750.7828 or e-mail for information on Wedding or e-mail for information on Memorial Ceremony.
