Meet the Sail Buffalo Crew

A lifelong sailor who grew up on the windy shores at the West Coast of Sweden. After coming to Buffalo he has taken his Captains License and ASA Instructor credentials (201, 203, 204, 214). Look for the interview with Capt. Pierre Wallinder at the end of this page.

Alexandra “Al” is a passionate teacher who loves children and to see them succeed on the water. She is wonderful with all ages, but is especially fond of the Junior Sail Campers.

Having began his sailing career relatively late in life at 30 years old, Tim dove into the sport with a passion and quickly obtained his ASA 101, 103, 104 and 114 designations. During his eighteen years of sailing he has become an accomplished racer as well as a frequent cruiser in the Caribbean.

Worldwide traveler, freelance writer and restorer of an old church, Dan recently took his 100 t USCG license and became an ASA 201 Certified Sailing Instructor. He loves summers in Buffalo but is already planning for work in the Caribbean during winter months.

Nick WallyWorld graduated from SUNY Maritime College with a BE in Naval Architecture 2016! Now he resides in Cleveland OH where he works for Great Lakes Group. He will also teach sailing out of Cleveland, on his Catalina 27, booking requests can be sent to us or to him directly during evenings and weekend only.
