Jason Cox

Captain/Instructor

18+ years on the water.

2020, 2021 & 2022 ASA Outstanding Instructor of the Year (Top 1% of 900+ Instructors)

Jason was born and has lived in Myrtle Beach for most of life, enjoying the multiple water-related activities that the area has to offer. After graduating from college in Atlanta, getting married, and starting a career in graphic & web design, Jason and his wife, Amy, decided to leave the “rat race”, get back by the ocean, and return to the Myrtle Beach area.

Jason’s passion for sailing began years ago when his family purchased a 44′ CSY for cruising and chartering the local waters during the summer. Having learned the basics of sailing while crewing, Jason quickly fell in love with it and set his sights on getting properly trained and certified through the American Sailing Association, first as a student, then a few years later as a sailing Instructor. As part-time Captain of his family’s charter business, he decided sailing is what he wanted to do for his career, closed his web design business and began focusing on sailing full-time.

While chartering and teaching basic sailing skills to those interested, Jason decided to open Myrtle Beach Sailing School in 2013 and began non-certification instruction on Island Song, a 32′ Morgan 321. In 2014 he decided a more formal, progressive learning curriculum would be beneficial to his students and opted to become an American Sailing Association Certification Facility.

Jason now spends most of his working time on the Atlantic teaching others the lifetime enjoyment of sailing, and delivering sailboats up and down the East Coast or to the Caribbean. In his spare time he can be found with his wife and two sons either sailing, fishing, playing at the beach, or participating in some other outdoor activity.
