When Jason Massaroni was 17 years old, he was working at a marina when a boat owner invited him for a Wednesday night race. He was hooked from the first race. “When I sail, my stress and concerns ashore vanish,” said Jason. “It’s very good for the soul.” He’s sailed a variety of classes – including Melges, Scows, Interlake, F/24, F/31, Colgate 26, Tripp 26, Laser, Alberg 30, Shock 40, and various J-boats – and has sailed on Lake Michigan, countless inland lakes, Lake Erie, Key West, Monterey, and the San Francisco Bay.
The boat owner who originally invited Jason sailing turned out to be a sailmaker, and the rest was history. Through sailmaking, Jason discovered a love for working with his hands and was able to blend that passion with something he’s always enjoyed – working with people. He joined the Quantum team in 2007 when he was looking for more opportunities to grow as a sailmaker, and in 2012 he took over as Service Manager at Quantum Great Lakes.
For Jason, Quantum Sails provides the perfect blend of sailing expertise and customer service. “My favorite part of working with the Quantum team is the team itself,” he said. “The people I work with make it great. Customers working with me can expect honesty and to have their expectations met or exceeded.”
