“We recently had the opportunity to learn to sail under the instruction of Sailing Instructor Jonas Juhlin. We were very pleased with his skills, patience and knowledge. He was dedicated to more than teaching us the basic skills required for certification; he spent as much time as we needed to feel confident in our own sailing ability. We had a very positive experience and are looking forward to sailing with Oakland Parks & Recreation often.”
