Sailing Vacation in Antigua
NauticEd offers Yacht Charters and sailing vacation in Antigua via its affiliated Yacht Charter Companies.
My vision for NauticEd is to ensure that families and friends get out on the water not only safely but with true COMPETENCE, confidently savoring every moment of their valuable time.
Achieving this means being the pinnacle of sailing and boating education—offering comprehensive multi-media theoretical instruction coupled with hands-on, on-the-water training through our global network of American National Standards Instructors. We steadfastly avoid becoming a mere certification mill; our focus is on delivering genuine competence, ensuring our students are well-prepared for enjoyable, real-world boating experiences.

We received an email this morning from someone who compliments us on our courses but ripped us a new one for requiring him to enter time into his logbook. Well, we don’t quite “require”, but the software does raise the student’s rank […]
For sure the NauticEd team will be in New Zealand in 2021 watching the Americas Cup. This is set to be another technology race. Hydrofoiling Monohulls – so very cool!

My Rant on the Sailing Certification Factories This actually happened today. A yacht charter client of ours submitted his resume to the yacht charter company. He had sailing certifications from another certifying body from 101 through 105. He was turned down. Imagine the disappointment you’d have when you have done all that work and paid all […]

I nabbed this image off Pinterest via (https://hobiecat16.wordpress.com/2010/09/23/points-of-sail-vs-boat-speed/). It is a pretty good image that represents the speed of a sailboat versus the sailing angle to the wind. It is pretty easy to read – at dead downwind in a 10-knot breeze the fastest you can get this boat to go is slightly less than […]
