On-water training now available from
Annapolis School of Seamanship!
As our state slowly opens Annapolis School of Seamanship will begin offering limited on-water training and private instruction for friends and family. This is in keeping with the new Maryland guidance that limits boating to “immediate family members or people with which they reside”. We are following all Maryland Departments of Commerce and Health guidelines. In addition our captains and all passengers will have temperature checks prior to training. All vessels will be cleaned and sterilized before each course and any time there is a change in passengers.
We have several options available (via the button below) that can be specifically tailored for the current environment and restrictions. Options or combination of options are available, please give us a call to discuss. We look forward to getting on the water again.
Currently our school building and classrooms remain closed. Classroom classes scheduled through the end of May have been postponed. We will provide updates to classroom course availability as we learn more in the coming weeks.
Thank you for your continued patience and support as we adapt and adjust to the rapidly changing conditions.
