Satori Sailing
About
Satori Sailing is a sailing school and charter company in Marblehead that teaches adults and teens 12 and up on keelboats in the protected waters of Salem Sound. Courses run from a first sail through advanced skills and bareboat certification, using American Sailing Association and NauticEd curricula, and the school also offers powerboat lessons. For those who just want to relax on the water, private charters and mile-building trips are available.
Owner and chief instructor Graham has sailed for 50 years, starting with dinghy racing as a Boy Scout in Boston, England. He has sailed in Europe, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand and the Caribbean, delivered boats between New England and the Caribbean, and was part of Ursa’s winning crew in the 2023 Marblehead to Halifax race. Small classes give each student plenty of time at the helm.
