But luckily Captain Anthony (aka The Happy Captain) helped to dispel any of those fears. His 30+ years of sailing experience and instruction got us up to speed quickly on the 38-ft catamaran "Untethered". In addition to sailing, we learned provisioning, how to anchor at mooring balls in Catalina, and spent 4 nights on board. It's hard to express they joy I felt at seeing the dozens of dolphins that joined us one afternoon. The man overboard drills we did offshore of Marina Del Rey were also memorable. We brought our own Starlink terminal and were able to familiarize ourselves with some of the navigation and weather apps. Ruth in the office made sure all of our logistics went smoothly. We had signed up a few months prior, with a promo offered during the 2025 Newport Boat Show. Big thanks to the team at Blue Pacific. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience with BlueWater Sailing School…read more I took a class at another sailing school before coming to BlueWater, and the difference was night and day. The other school's course felt rushed, and it seemed like everyone passed no matter what. At BlueWater, the instructors really make sure I understand the material, can handle the boat, and feel confident before they sign off. They're very knowledgeable, the boats are in great condition. They genuinely care about helping people become competent sailors. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend the Marina del Rey crew!

Everyone that went really enjoyed themselves and said they would book another boat ride with the same captain and boat. Before the day we sailed out I asked a million and one questions and they were all answered in a timely manner. Instructions on how to prepare for the charter were clear. Directions to where the dock is located were clear as well. They recommend buying Dramamine for motion sickness. You should get it even if you don't think you'll get sick. My group and I did a morning charter and were back by the afternoon. I thought that was perfect since it wasn't too hot while we were out in the ocean. Can't wait to book another boat ride. Thanks, Captain Stephen!

The booking process was easy, and I was able to instantly reserve the time & date I wanted online. Checking in was also a breeze, as the boat is conveniently docked outside a hotel that provided valet parking. The boat itself is very clean and had plenty of seating space (both inside & outside) as well as room in the front netting to enjoy ocean views from both side. We brought our own food and drinks to enjoy. We had Captain Ron throughout our excursion who is simply the BEST. You can tell that he has a ton of experience, and even brought us to see pods of dolphins swimming! He expertly navigated us so close to the dolphins, and this experience was the highlight of our weekend.
