Hadley Neale
Hadley grew up sailing in the Narragansett Bay. Starting on smaller dinghies she showed a tenacity for being on and around the water early on. As she grew older she progressed by moving up in boat size and complexity and found a niche within the waterfront community of Rhode Island. Over the years Hadley’s sailing has branched further out of the Bay to include most of the East Coast of the US. She sailed competitively in High School and College on a variety of one design boats. In 2013 Hadley graduated from Maine Maritime Academy, majoring in Vessel Operations Technologies and minoring in Sail Training. She has been working on various vessels associated with the American Sail Training fleet working primarily with teenagers sailing up and down the East Coast of Canada, the United States and the Caribbean. When Hadley is not sailing with students she is active in racing classics or delivering boats around New England and the Caribbean. Currently, Hadley holds a USCG license of 500 GRT with a 200 GRT Auxiliary Sail endorsement and is studying to upgrade her license and endorsement this year.
