Adventures in Paradise

Captain Bob's Ports of Paradise

Everyone dreams of escaping to paradise. For some it is sailing off to the South Sea islands with swaying palms and white sand beaches. For others it is bicycling across Europe, or taking a trip around the world. We want our ideal two week vacation to last forever. We wish it could be our basic lifestyle. The fact is, it can be if we really want it. The difference between wishing and living it, is taking action to bust through barriers to make a desired lifestyle happen.

Ocean Cruising in Sailboats

What the experience will do for you.

Ocean sailing is more than recreation, it is a learning platform, observation post, a transportation systems for awareness, and as delivery systems for understanding. All crew members, young and old alike, learn to take responsibility for the ship, for learning how to work it, for shipmates, and ultimately for themselves. They learn to trust themselves as well as others.
