About Atlantic Charters

A Family Business Built on a Passion for Sailing

Atlantic Charters, based in Marblehead, Massachusetts is a family-run business, dedicated to sharing the passion and thrill of sailing on the North Shore to sailors of all skill levels – from those who have never sailed before and experienced sailors.

Our clients have many different sailing goals and our committment is to provide unparalleled service, safety and hands-on exciting sailing experiences for all levels of sailing skill.

With combined sailing experience of 50 years, Captain Allan Waldman and Captain Alan Leibovitz have built Atlantic Charters from a single sailboat charter, to a full-service sailing center in the heart of historic Marblehead Harbor, with a growing fleet of sailboats available for day sail charter, chartered excursions or private rental, as well as a complete sailing instruction program for children, novices, and experienced sailors. Whether you are simply interested in learning the basics of sailing, or wish to become a more experienced sailor for coastal cruising or ocean racing, we can meet your needs.
