Our Coaches

I’m Neve, the head coach at the Shelburne Sailing Academy. I am a second year engineering student at Dalhousie University. This is my fourth year as a sailing instructor but I have been a student, volunteer, sailor, and racer at SSA for many years. I am dedicated to making our club great! See you on the water!
I’m Ollie and I have been sailing, racing and competing in regattas as long as I can remember. I’ve also previously coached at SSA in a race coach role, working with the kids interested in competing in regattas. I’m enrolled in Sport and Exercise Science at Oxford Brookes university, planning to pursue professional coaching after completing my degree.

I’m Owen and I’m finishing my 11th year of high school. I am motivated and passionate about the sport of sailing and I can’t wait to begin my second year of coaching as well as my fourth year of sailing. I was the top youth in the previous year ECAC regatta, and I can’t wait to represent the Shelburne Yacht Club during Baywind and Other provincial regattas this summer. As well as dinghy sailing I have come to love keelboat racing and will be racing on High Flight this season. I hope to see you all on the water
