"Jennifer Wirth is an extraordinary teacher.  Her undergraduate degree was in Physics, so she brings that knowledge to the process-and her quiet manner and respectful approach to teaching.  She is a great teacher and I know one when I see one..."..."Thank you for being a great teacher!  It was a pleasure to learn from you-and travel with you..."  March 2007, Dr . Kent A.L. "Thanks for a fantastic week and having the patience of a saint."  February 2007, Dan Q. "...The week exceeded my expectations and I was very pleased with the entire trip..."  July 2006, Ron N. "Captain Jennifer is an outstanding instructor and exceeded my expectations.  I learned everything that I wanted to learn.  Her patience in answering the same question several times is impressive.  She also made it fun and an enjoyable vacation."  April 2006, Karen T. "...The trip exceeded my expectations.  You are an excellent teacher.  I learned so much and had an absolutely spectacular time.  Thank you for taking care of us when we let our inexperience show-we learned some lessons..."   April 2006, Tammy H. "...you're an AWESOME teacher, so calm and relaxed...thank you!  I learned so much..."  March 2006, Vicki L. "Our captain was Jen Wirth.  What an amazing woman and captain.  She made me realize that women can be tough and confident...I feel much more confident taking the helm..."  March 2006, Lisa D., s/v "Dream Catcher"   "...Captain Jennifer did a fantastic job as keeping the big amount of information simple as well as taking time to talk about her adventures experiences..."  August 2005, Monica and Jens H. "We want to thank you for making the course such an enjoyable learning experience for us. I'm hoping to get our 18' sailboat in the water this weekend, so we can start practicing all of the things we learned..."  August 2005, Nancy and Patrick H. "My 'learing adventure' was excellent due to the friendly expertise of Jennifer Wirth, instructor and the comraderie of the three other younger women from Calif., who were students on the 35'sailboat.  I highly recommend that you hire Jennifer often, especially when you have both senior citizen and much younger customers on board.  Her customer service skills and patience explaining a concept repeatedly, are unmatchedby any learning experience I have had, both in the classroom and in the workplace..."  May 2004, Charlotte C.

"My goals were to get experience on a larger cruising boat so that I would feel comfortable chartering a boat in the future, and to have a peaceful mini-vacation with my wife away from the kids (who were with Grandma) while we had fun learning to handle the bigger boat in the beautiful FL Keys.  Mission accomplished!  The boat was a joy to sail, very convenient rigging, etc.  Lots of real-world experience in real-life situcations anchoring, docking, fueling, sailing.  By the end felt quite comfortable double-handing the boat with my wife (though I found 1 extra adult, while no a necessity, is very handy!) and even got to practice the coastal nav skills..."  May 2003, Eric M. "Overall our expectations were met.  I would charter again, particularly if Jennifer was available. She added a lot of value to the experience...quite professional."  January 2004, Greg D. "Patti had it in mind that we should go on one of those cruises with Gofer and Capt. Stubbings.  She had been after me for years, but I could not bring myself to do that.  I can't stand staying in a hotel and floating around in one didn't seem all that appealing to me.  When I presented this trip to her I didn't really know what to expect, and honestly for a while I could tell she was having issues.  She was also nervous about things.  This is why I can't thank you enough, whe was able to relax and we both had a great time.  I hope i am able to continue sailing.  I have always loved the ocean, and get out on the water as much as possible.  But even if I can't at least we did this..."  November 2002, John H. "The main reason for our classes was to make sure that my wife was comfortable with a bigger boat and could handle the basics of skippering and crewing on it...The next day with Jennifer was enjoyable going through techniques and man overboard drills.  This gave my wife a new insight into this disaster, that youjust don't throw me a beer and say goodbye!!!..."  August 2002, Mike and Rhea D. "Jenn picked some succlent steaks & we feasted like royalty...If I could, I would schedule a cruise with an exp. captain such as Jenn, do allot of nanuevering, navigation, & compare styles, techniques, etc. because one of sailing's challenges is navigating a course then sailing it esp. where your point of sail doesn't necessarily go with available searoom."  July 2002, Chris H.
