"BLISS"- Boating Lifestyle Introductory Seminar Series New! - $450 per couple

BLISS Training is specifically designed for non-boaters! It does away with the pressures of buying a boat before trying a boat! It offers an opportunity to learn all aspects of boat buying in a 4-hour classroom setting and afterwards attendees will go on-the-water, on a boat with a USCG licensed professional Captain for 4 hours of hands-on learning, piloting, crewing, docking, anchoring.  We'll even buy lunch as you experience a “dock & dine” at a local restaurant! The curriculum includes interactive, email & online instruction including over 50 website links, attachments, forms and a complete presentation. Finally the non-boater can learn about the Boating Lifestyle in an objective, unbiased, professional and real life experience in boating! Contact us for dates & locations. Click here for brochure.
