I just joined this group and wanted to let everyone know. I bought
albin vega(smal swedish sail boat) this summer and I'd like to get
some tips about "guality" sailing...


One of the best tips I ever heard given is that if you're not already
sailors, invest in classes for at least yourself and significant other.
Kids too if you got them and can swing it.
It will "invest" the family in the activity by making it more interesting
and cut down on a lot of friction between the crew members.
That friction has sunk more than one mans dreams of sailing. Enough
abrasive captaining can quickly lead to "me or that &^^%** boat!"


Definitely.. and don't skim by just going yourself (assuming you have an
SO). Both people need to be competent.
