Offshore Sailing Today with COSS

Chesapeake Offshore Sailing

The team at Chesapeake Offshore Sailing Services (COSS) presents interviews with noted offshore racers, brings you tips, tricks and advice on how to prepare your boat for offshore sailing, and shows you how to “win the race to the starting line” and beyond! Since we are both cruisers and offshore racers, we will cover aspects of both activities and show how cruisers can make better racers and racers can make better cruisers!
