We’ve taught many sailors who often start in small
boats, then work their way up to larger ones. Even when you own a large
sailboat, it is important to think of the vessel as a big dinghy.This
classroom and on the water and teaches basic sailing skills on small
boats (14’ Lasers and 13’ Flying Juniors). |
