It was Steve and his Family that taught him how to sail and have remained friends longer than anyone else they know. Jonathan's professional career in opera has taken him around the world, but his passion for sailing has remained constant. In 2001, Jonathan earned his first sailing certification while navigating a 40-foot Morgan in Sarasota Bay, Florida.

Jonathan has since raced and cruised on various sailboats in the Hudson River, NY, and along Long Island’s North and South shores, The great Lakes ( With Just US) and Maine on a 40 ft OC Hinckley, 42 ft Halberg-Rassey. among others. After moving to Maine, he obtained his US Coast Guard Master license with towing and sailing auxiliary endorsements.

Recently, he completed the "Sequin Sprint" Island race in Maine and delivered an 88-foot Ferretti motor yacht from NY to Florida.
