Our mission is to provide unparalleled chartered sailing adventures that immerse our Guests in the beauty of Lake Pend Orielle and the memory-making power of nature.
“My grandchildren and I had great time sailing with Cloud Nine Charters. It delighted my heart to see them explore the sailboat from bow to stern, take turns to be at the helm, breathe in the fresh air, and settle into the peacefulness of sailing."

LEARN TO SAIL
Interactive sailing lessons for fun-loving locals and summertime travelers
For those interested in active sailing, I can teach almost anyone the basics in a couple of hours. My style is to quietly build your confidence.
If you want to "learn the ropes," I will guide you in helming the boat and reading the wind. Experience what sails should look like when they are set efficiently, and learn which lines to adjust for a smooth sail.
​
The goal is to harness the wind for the most fun you've ever had at five knots per hour!
