WOW what a class! I can not believe how much information we managed to learn and understand in only one week. I must commend you and Captain Ken Stepnitz on doing an excellent job on the way the information was taught and in keeping the class interesting. I know there is no way I could have learned as much as I did this past week without your help. I would strongly recommend to anyone looking to get their Captain’s License or simply learning the safe manner in which to operate a vessel to take your class. I think the classroom was first class and the atmosphere was very relaxed. Thank you Very much!
