We like to take boats that are about to be sent to the scrapyard and teach people how to restore them to better than brand new condition and then pass them along to a new loving home.
See our Gallery and Facebook page for more photos and videos.
Sail Marblehead Inc. is a non-profit sailing and boat restoration school founded in 2002 by Captain Jim Ouellette.
Captain Ouellette is a United States Coast Guard licensed master of up to 100 ton vessels. He is an American Sailing Association certified instructor from basic keel boat through bare boat charters. He is a former delivery Captain of Fazisi, an 83 foot boat built for around the world Whitbread Racing (now called the Volvo Ocean Race).
Captain Ouellette did charters on Fazisi for two summers based in Marblehead and Salem harbors, as well as trips to Bermuda. He often does bare boat charter certifications and offshore cruising instruction while sailing to Bermuda or Tortola, British Virgin Islands.
Private or group sailing lessons are available
