We know - it's not easy for a sailor to be stuck at home. Your friends at MSC are here to help (from a safe distance)! Here's a list of sailing and nautical-themed books, films, YouTube channels, music, and apps enjoyed and recommended by our members and staff. Nothing compares to the actual experience of sailing - but this should keep you entertained and inspired for awhile!
Every March at Modern Sailing School & Club, we take a moment to recognize members who have taken the helm and sailed the extra nautical mile during the previous year. Here are the winners of our 2019 Top Charterer, Top Student, and MSC Ambassador Awards.
The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.
It has been wonderful sailing with MSC over the years. Please extend my thanks to the owners, management, and staff for unrequited professionalism and high standards in a charter fleet. I have sailed with several in my years and none nearly hold a candle to the quality of business and staff at Modern Sailing.
I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.
