Spending a majority of his life in Newport, David's extensive local knowledge, where he also spent close to a decade as the Executive Director at the Rose Island Lighthouse, will add to your amazing adventure aboard Hurrah or First Light

 

There is a reason why Newport, Rhode Island has been named the sailing capital of the world.  We would love the opportunity to show you around on your own private sailing charter!
