Whew-So many memories and good times these past 7 days! You
have been a superb captain, host, and instructor! I will remember
so many moments of Joy :-) Flying fish, Fair Winds, Pounding
Nights, Fuel Filters, Wonderful dinners, and lots of laughs!
Thank you for an exceptional Extended Version of 106! We hope
to see you soon again, dear sailor.

Capt Jenn,
"Some things have to be experienced as mere description
can not suffice-this week was one of those things. I came to
gain ASA101-104 and I walk away with so much more- increased
confidence, increased serenity, increased focus on good life
values.

Thank you captains Jeff and Jenn!
We learned so much this week.
You and Jeff made it so much fun. You removed this anxiety of
taking a boat out on our own. It's also comforting to know we're
not the only crazy ones. Keep in touch.

Dear Capt Jenn,
Thank you is not enough of an expression to show
how appreciative we are for all you did for me and my family.
You gave me an unforgettable week of learning about sailing and
having fun doing it. You have given me new perspective on life.
Thank you-
See you soon again. Rita B. Maryland
Thanks for the awesome week. Time flew
by, but I had a fantastic time. It was a great adventure, and
you were the perfect guide and teacher. I hope this is a start
to a long life of sailing for me, because you have shown how
much fun and excitement there is to the ocean. Let me know
if anyone buy my tree.

Dear Jenn,
It has been a few days since we returned from an adventure
of a lifetime for all of us. It was so much more than a sailing
school. You surpassed all our expectations.
Your approach to life inspires all those around you. You filled
us with enthusiasm to do things that most of people just dream
of. You are a great leader and a Captain of great patience and
authority. Wow!!! I know we will always be thinking back to our
pirate lives and the monkeys. I can't wait to do it again....
Love, Mama Pirate,
Rocket Pirate and Doctor Pirate
Jen- Only two events in my life were greater gifts than the
last three days spent with you and Indian Summer. They were the
births of my children and grandchild. This was truly a life altering
experience. Thanks for all your love and patience. In New England
when we have an Indian Summer is it a rare gift....and so are
you. Love and Peace, Carolyn
Jen- You are extraordinarily gifted! Thank you so much for many "lessons" learned,
your superb cuisine, your patience, your guts to keep us doing
man overboard again and again!!! your music, and just your love
of adventure-and being able to share yourself! You've
inspired me -and you'll hear more later-Ann
This was a lifetime gift. This weekend for me
was informative, specific, relaxing, hard work, but by far the
most incredible one I had in all the years I can or care to remember.
Thank you Jennifer. Maureen
Excellent trip-have gained confidence and feel more empowered.
Captain Jen was certainly the rose in the trip. Highly recommend
to all women who have the need to grow. L. Woods
What a wonderful experience this has been.
You made it so much fun-with your funny stories, your wealth
of experience, and your endless patience. You are delightful.
I can’t wait to put
my new knowledge to use. R. Greene
Thank you so much for eliminating my fears and pushing hard,
otherwise I would still be scared and lazy. Leona
Thank you for such a positive learning environment! I will
definitely feel more comfortable and capable on a sailboat and
look forward to future sailing lessons and adventures. Sandy
It has been a blast! I know that I’ve learned so much.
Our first day of sailing was a “whopper” but your
demeanor kept us calm. You are quite the young woman. You made
our trip wonderful. You are very knowledgeable, but also patient-a
perfect teacher. Again thank you for a terrific trip. Donna
You are the best- a born teacher and the patience of Job. This
is a trip that I will always remember and enjoy retelling and
embellishing as the years go by. Susan
Thank you for making this trip such a wonderful vacation. I
learned so much and had such a fun time. A good captain makes
this happen. Don’t know how I will be able to go back to
the real world. K. Carney
This experience has been wonderful-because of you and great
shipmates. I am so in awe with your abilities and your joie de
vivre and always had confidence in you even in our hurricane
winds! I hope to do some sailing now that I have the foundation
for it-but I will always remember this week fondly. Jean
We could have not asked for a more fun captain for our new
adventure. You made everything so very special- Outstanding instruction
and such tasty meals. I’ll think of you often come winter.
Ann
I
couldn’t have had a better captain to teach me the
things I need to know before I attempt to sail off in the sunset
with my husband. Now when he yells “prepare to jibe” I
won’t stand there dumbfounded and duck down below. Your
patience is that of a saint. Thank you for the fun, the excitement,
and lessons in adventure. Mary
Wow-What a wonderful weekend. You helped me overcome my fear
of sailing. I’ll email you when I get my 1st sailboat.
You sing great-keep it up. Susan
Thanks for a wonderful time and an immense amount of knowledge.
Chris
Sweet Jen. You are awesome! What a wonderful 3 days. It all
went so fast. Whenever I tie a knot, I will always think of you.
Sue
I learned a lot and achieved my goals. Thanks for making it
happen. You have high expectations as any great teacher has.
Marylin
What a great time and we learned soooo much. Thank you for
all your patience (especially with my know tying) when we stat
our cruising life we will head this way! Cam
What a joy to come aboard a beautiful boat, welcomed with a
jolly smile and to hear my favorite song in the background, My
mood was set immediately. Mary Jane
What a joy to be with someone with such passion and ability
to share that passion in a positive way. I’ve learned so
much on this adventure and have had a great time in doing so-
thank you captain Jen. N. Driscoll
Capt. Jen I learned so much. Thank you so much. You are an
awesome role model. You have renewed my fascination and love
for sailing. I am ready to once again take on the Chesapeake
with my Cal 25 and plan to one day sail the open weather in something
as comfortable as Indian Summer. Sue
This experience has open up a world of unlimited possibilities.
Having kids has kept me caught up in their lives, I forgot about
myself. This will help me bring them into mu world of interest.
I hope to master this field while also enjoying it. Gabriella
Thank
you for all your help and advice about living aboard. I’ve learned a lot of practical tips (like how to blow
through the AC hose and check the oil) and also had a lot of
fun. I’ll always remember us tying up at the Annapolis
City dock with one dockline-thanks for sharing my adventure.
I’ve gained so much more confidence-especially with backing
up, and docking. I am so glad that I met you and shared part
of my first week on board. Christy
Finally at age 50 I got to be a junior commander- Thanks for
the confidence. Karen
Thanks for the wonderful weekend. It’s
nice knowing that women today can spend their lives doing what
they love and sharing it with the rest of us. I had a blast
and learned tons. Much less eat fabulously. Julia
