Did my boating course about 2 month ago with Captain Rick,Very informative, lots of knowledge,
A fun and interactive classroom,I learned so much about the boating world....thank you Captain Rick,
I highly recommend anyone who is looking to get their boating certification, to contact Captain Rick

Just brought my newly purchased boat around from Freeport to College point. This guy goes above and beyond! Made sure everything on the boat was 100٪ in working order. Then worked with the dealer fixing the things that weren't. Saved me a trip back for repairs to things I would not have discovered until later. Made the trip around a joy rather than a stressful situation. Great day on the water.
Thank you again Capt. Rick!

Capt. Rick is the best instructor and Captain I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Extremely knowledgeable and reliable. He has transport two vessels for me over 300 miles. He has given me some great tips that have simplified my ability to dock a boat in the most challenging winds, currents and even just navigating through dangerous Chanel’s and Jettis.

Outstanding Teacher!
I purchased a 30 foot boat & hired him for 1-on-1 private instruction.

Capt. Rick is wonderful.
He is patient & very positive.
Capt. Rick gets you out on the water immediately. You will have fun practicing what you need to know.

Honestly, in two 3 hour sessions he taught me to undock, maneuver around the marina & dock my 30 foot boat in high winds.

Capt. Rick did not waste any time. He just smiled, he inspected the boat & he had steer the boat out to get on with the business of piloting.
We went all over the marina doing all kinds of manuveers. He just stood next to me, smiled, and he calmly told me what to do while waving at the people watching us.

We practiced until I could do it all with confidence.
He is an outstanding boating instructor.
Thank you Capt. Rick Mendez !

The captain-instructor was very thorough and concise! I feel much safer after attending this course. I highly recommend it!
