Starting Over

I have decided to apply it to sailing lessons, beginning with ASA 101 through basic coastal cruising, and bareboat charting. I figure this will give me an opportunity to find out if I am still capable of sailing and enjoying it as much as 25 years ago. Also, I will be staying aboard rather than spending the nights at a motel during class periods. ($50.00 a night). First up is a two day session beginning next Thursday. Hopefully I will meet some folks in the area who need (or at least will settle for) some inexperienced crew help. Any suggestions or helpful advice will be greatly appreciated. Congratulations on your new direction. If you want to gain experience sailing different boats, show up on race day at any of the club regattas. I've never been to a race day when there weren't skippers walking the docks looking for crew to replace no shows. Tell the race director your available, they often keep a list. Have fun. And congratulations on starting an on topic thread, however, as you can see, the usual suspects can turn that on a dime. Frank Thanks Frank, I'll google around and seee what's in the area. jlrogers±³© "Those who would give up a little freedom to get a little security shall soon have neither." Benjamin Franklin |
