Testimonials
I’ve learned so much in their classes. A must have for anyone who owns a boat or is thinking of buying one. Their instructors are the best! I checked out other options, no one comes close.
Barbara D. Fallbrook
My husband and I thoroughly enjoy exploring the beautiful coastline of Oceanside in our Catalina 315. We would not have been doing any of this had it not been for America’s Boating Club – Oceanside educaitonal classes, organized cruises and the wonderful people we met!! Being part of America’s Boating Club, Oceanside opened up an entire new world for us.

Great educational programs – they also know how to have a good time. Sundowners on Oceanside Bay, cruises to Catalina and Mission Bay. Knowledgeable speakers at the potlucks. Great fun!
