You are about to embark on one of the most exciting adventures of your life. Rather than a vacation that ends on the last day, sailing is the beginning of a passion that lasts a lifetime. It’s a passion that founders Steve and Doris Colgate have dedicated their lives to sharing with you.

A sailor since the age of nine, Steve’s racing career includes America’s Cup Trials, the Olympics, TransAtlantic and Fastnet Races. He has completed numerous class championships and international distance races on maxi-ocean racers. Together the Colgates campaigned their 54-foot ocean-racer Sleuth and have enjoyed cruising all over the world. Steve founded Offshore Sailing School in 1964. Doris founded the National Women’s Sailing Association in 1990. Both Steve and Doris actively participate on several national boards and committees, including US SAILING, Boat U.S. and Sail America. Steve has been president of the International Sailing School Association since 1997.

In 1996, Steve and Doris shared the prestigious Sail Magazine Industry Award for Leadership and in 2003 the US SAILING Timothea Larr Trophy in recognition of their outstanding leadership and excellence in sailing education. Doris was awarded the Betty Cook Memorial Lifetime Achievement Award from Boating Magazine. When you take a course at Offshore, you receive all the benefits of Steve and Doris Colgate’s vast experience! They are continually improving, refining and polishing their curriculum to give you exactly what you need to feel confident at the helm.

Go Green… Go Sailing! Good for you. Good for the World.
Sailing is the ultimate green activity —
and we’re keen on green! Because sailing is wind-powered, you’ll use very little fuel, if any. An exhilarating tonic for your senses, it’s refreshing, all-natural and very, very clean!
