Pam Wall’s Consulting Services

Pam Wall’s consulting services offer the expertise, advice, and security of over a decade of Outfitting Management with West Marine, years of raising a family on a sailboat while circumnavigating the globe, and a lifetime of cruising the waters of the world. Consulting can come in many forms, but what you gain is the knowledge, comfort, and understanding of coastal and bluewater cruising that will allow you and your family to enjoy your time on the water with the peace of mind that you are prepared for your adventure.

With previous clients, the following questions have been tackled in many different ways: simple conversations while outfitting your boat, helping you to find your ideal boat, meetings to discuss specific situations and cruising locations, and sometimes, shadowing me on a cruise.

Every consultation has different needs and different expectations. If you are interested in finding out about how I can help bring more enjoyment to your next adventure, are interested in a quote for my services, or would like to speak with me personally for any reason, please contact me.
