"What a GREAT find! Captain Stan and Latitude were exactly what I was looking for. I had already taken the ASA bareboat charter course and was considering the purchase of my first sailboat to single-hand. I decided to charter this winter to get more experience and knowledge. With Latitude Sailing I was able to get more than I had expected. Captain Stan is full of knowledge and presents it in a very informative way. I also feel very safe sailing Latitude because I know she is very well taken care of. Capt. Stan is always on top of the maintenance. With a boat like Latitude and a company like this I am seriously considering to forgo the headaches of boat ownership and to continue chartering. Happy Sailing! "
