Oh God...please don't be so naive and ask something like that. Lurk
here for a month and then ask yourslef if you REALLY want to ask
that question here???

Not to worry Katy! - afterall, this is the land of miscommunications!
Plus, I'd never pick on the ASA's First Lady of Sailing!

Please avoid the resident Jerks here. They can't stop being dumb long
enough to make toast.
Check your area for yacht clubs and marinas. Visit them and make
friends if possible. Just meeting a few folks working on a boat can
lead to time aboard. You can also post on some sailing groups and
volunteer to be crew, but be sure to explain that you're a novice.
Quite a few sailors out there go it alone and might welcome the
company. You can also volunteer some work (painting, sanding and so on)
in exchange for a few sails. I got back into sailing because I met
someone who had a J30 and was invited out many times. A few months
later I had my first boat. I'm sure to always invite people out.
Sailing is also about being generous as it can be best observed through
the eyes of a new sailor. Folks here have long forgotten such things,
opting to guard their tired old boats like a treasure chest filled with
pennies and belly button lint.
Now, 11 years later I have the nicest boat in this group and sail more
than anyone! Keep a positive attitude and it will take you far...on the
land and on the sea.

Good luck,

Is this group a viable weight loss technique?
