Ned Goss is in his 16th season as dock master for the College of Charleston sailing program entering the 2026 campaign.
A CofC graduate, Goss has tremendous experience in teaching and growing a top-level sailing program, as he owned and eventually sold his own "Ocean Sailing Academy" in 2010. In 2025, Goss became the second Charleston sailing coach inducted into the ICSA Hall of Fame, earning the Graham Hall Award for outstanding service by a professional. An accomplished sailor, he has eight National or North American Championship wins in his career to date. Goss was also a member of the U.S. Sailing team in 2004 and 2005, but teaching is his passion.
Goss helps grow the already successful CofC Sailing Association and maintain the growing facility and fleets of boats. His motto has always been, "Sail Calm, Sail Confident and Sail for Fun."
