Sailing lessons, boat rentals, summer camp, programs, racing program, Caribbean bareboat charters. Port Sailing Center owns and operates the sailing school and Teen Caribbean Sailing. Port Sailing School is proud to be affiliated with the American Sailing Association. The school was founded in 2004 by Chris Nihill who started teaching sailing in 2001 with the Oyster Bay Sailing School. Chris started the school with three older boats and the dream to pass on his passion for sailing. Today the school owns and operates a fleet of nine sailboats supported by a launch and chaseboat. The days of the old boats are gone. The daysail fleet is now comprised of Sonar and J 24 one-design boats. The Sonar fleet is used as the primary teaching boat. The cruising fleet consists of 2002 Beneteau 36 and 2002 Dufour Gibsea 43. The Dufour is based in Tortola to support the Caribbean operations. All boa
