About Us

Sailing, Adventure & Racing is our passion!

Don't just let anyone take you out on a sailboat!  Capt. Kip has 15 years of sailing and racing experience.  Born in Colorado, he moved to Placencia, Belize at the age of 9 to continue his adventures; here he would learn to snorkel and fish with his local friends.  A couple of years later he moved back to the States ending up in Florida where he would continue his passion for adventures, learning to surf and sail!

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
