Awesome, amazing experience. Instructors were fantastic. Boats are accessible. I'm looking forward to learning more and progressing the skills I was taught. By the way; the Boston Harbor is beautiful and EVERYONE should see Boston from this very unique vantage point!

Went Sailing on Boston Harbour at 54, Lewis Wharf and had a blast. We we're lucky enough to have the sails to us and the Nelli was smooth as butter. An hour long sailing was worth it with a loads of stuff to learn...! Definitely worth doing once a while to experience the blue seas and open sky..!

Great training, very friendly, focused on knowledge. This is a busy place. Make sure you take your time to understand what you need to learn. Book your classes early in the summer, as classes get booked fast. Literally, classes are booked 6 weeks out. At the end of the summer, you are a skipper. I h...

Great group of people with fairly well maintained, but heavily used boats. Their classes are taught by very experienced sailors and the class size are very small with plenty of one on one instruction. The only downside is that if your a member on the large boats, unless you book long in advance it c...

Great instructors, boats, and above all customer service. If anything comes up last minute, instead of being bumped from your reservation, the BSC staff makes things right. Some other sailing memberships in new england could learn alot from how BSC treats their members.

This is place a gem. Far and away the best fractional ownership sailboat opportunity in the area. Their skilled, knowledgeable, service oriented staff feel like family. Also its the best sailing school around and their racing program is a blast!

While the center may be ok for first time learners, maintenance on the higher level boats no longer exists. For $3000 per season, 3 of our past 5 J24 boats had broken motors, and the staff acted like it was business as usual. Stay away if you are an experienced sailor.

I'm a woman that has a fanatical sailor husband. We signed up for a 3 part course to learn sailing, so I could become the fan too! The staff are young and fun & we had some really good instruction. We actually had some amazing sailing days. I would say this team gave me the confidence to enjoy s...

The operation has steadily gone downhill since the previous owner passed away. Under the new ownership in 2018, the boats break down more often possibly due to lack of maintenance and lack of new fleet, the degraded boat maintenance contributes to more mishaps in boat handling during docking, un-doc...

Excellent courses, great sailboats! I took a couple sailing courses this past summer, and the quality of the course and instructors was truly excellent. I then purchased a membership for sailing up through 27' daysailers, and truly enjoyed being out on the water for the remainder of the sailing se...

BSC is one of the hidden gems of Boston. It s a great place for beginners to expert sailors, racers and cruisers. Maintenance has been great on all the boats. Of course some sailors need more maintenance than others but absent the usual user error the BSC does a great job with an amazing staff.
