I have had the pleasure of working with both Captain Mike and Captain Tyler. I wanted to work on docking and going offshore. Both were patient and knowledgeable. I came away from Both sessions, learning something new , understanding boating conceptsand built and improved my confidence in my skills to operate my boat safely. I recommend them both highly!
Hi Vickie I took your first boating class in Charleston about one year ago. I followed thru with FBC out of the Grand Strand in Murrells Inlet. I have the use of 2022 pontoons, deckboats, fishing boats etc. i have been out every month except December. I have utilized everything that was taught in class and on the water. I am so happy that I am a very cautious and careful operator on the ICW and many of the tributaries. I have met many new friends and even was asked to show what I have learned to several boaters that were surprised as my operating my boats I even did an impressive hat overboard rescue wiry eight friends on board There are truly more inexperienced boaters than experienced. It was said in the class and in the harbor. Maybe we will catch up with you both on the water someday. Take care and boat safe Rich Drouin Pawleys Island
I am so thankful for this course and how it empowered me, especially as a female boater!
