Trouble docking? It might not be you, it might be the dock.

You've probably already taught someone how to dock their boat.

Maybe it was a friend, a neighbor, your kid's friend's dad who just bought his first boat and had no idea what he was doing. You talked him through it, and it worked out fine, because you actually know what you're doing.

I built something for people like you: Ravo.

It's a way to get paid for that knowledge — without starting a business, without building a website, without chasing down clients.

Here's how it actually works:
🛥️ You always teach on the client's own boat — no boat of your own required, no liability on your end
💰 You set your own rate — Ravo never tells you what to charge
📅 You control your schedule completely — flip on availability when you want to teach, off when you don't. One Saturday a month, a slow week at work, or not at all for months. No minimum, no commitment.
🔒 Every first lesson starts with a signed waiver, and all communication stays on the platform — your phone number and email are never shared
🆓 Completely free to join. No subscription, no signup fee, ever.

We're building this out now, ahead of the 2027 season — so if you create your profile today, you're one of the first instructors here as Lake Erie and Lake St. Clair fill in. Takes about five minutes.
