Instruction For All Ages
Captain Rich did a masterful job of teaching the future boaters to be safe, to be alert, and most of all to have fun and enjoy a pastime he loves himself. The class was filled with students from 13 to 73 and Captain Rich was able to connect with all of them to make sure the learning was received.
