OCEAN SAILING ACADEMY

The Southeast's Premiere Sailing School


Our Sailing School Story
Ned Goss and crew racing Melges 24
Our story has two beginnings ...

...which blended two years ago when Ned Goss (Five-time National Champion in the Fireball Class, Two-time North American Champion in the Fireball Class, and Two-time U.S. Sailing Team Member in the Olympic 49er) purchased OSA, an already successful sailing school. Until that time the school had focused primarily on 'serious sailors'.

Ned's vision expanded the offerings to include the wider community of recreational sailors. It now embraces the local community, assists local fundraising efforts, contributes to the green movement, and engages families and visitors in one of the finest low-impact forms of transportation and engagement with the outdoors available. The playground we train on begins in Charleston and extends to Massachusetts, Europe and the Caribbean.

Our motto: Sail Confident, Sail Calm, Sail for Fun.
