Notes: I can provide a 2024 Beneteau Oceanis 30' out of Liberty Landing Marina in Jersey City at a cost of $500/day.
I am happy to accommodate in the event you could provide a vessel for the assessment, as long as it is within a reasonable commute distance and time (up to 30 miles from Jersey City/up to an hour commute by public transportation). Alternatively - I will require coverage of my travel expenses and arrangements as needed.
The assessment shall take place on board a sloop larger than 30’ that has an operating motor, VHF, a galley, a head, all safety equipment required by the USCG, navigation instruments such as: depth finder, wind instrument, GPS etc. The boat should be a boat you are mostly *unfamiliar* with, as part of my assessment is your ability to review a vessel you have never sailed before, as you are doing when you are chartering a boat.

Feedback from previous students
Captain Levy joined me for an on-the-water assessment in connection with my SLC in advance of a Mediterranean sailing vacation. She made the process very straightforward, and it was a pleasure to spend the day with her on the water. Both those just learning and experienced sailors will benefit from her diverse experience on the water and enjoy swapping stories of racing and cruising in far-flung destinations.
Nitzan was great! Very professional and very organized.
Nitzan Levy is an exceptional teacher with an incomparable passion for sailing and empowering others to learn and succeed. I would highly recommend her to anyone desiring to deepen their knowledge and skills, whether they were a novice or someone with years of experience. Nitzan is the best!
She is a patient and caring instructor and is definitely my 1st choice for continuing education!
Thank you Nitzan
I couldn’t have made this accomplishment without the leadership of Capt. Nitzan Levy!
Nitzan Levy is a true professional who is extremely knowledgeable in the maritime world. She is a good teacher and was the perfect person to assess me for my SLC. She was also a delightful personality and I look forward to continuing our relationship.
I had a great day sailing with Nitzan, she is fun to be with and very professional in her assessment! Highly recommended.
Nitzan is a great instructor, combining knowledge, experience, and good communication skills.
