CRUISING TRAINING SKILLS! SHE OF CORTEZ!
We have a 2 week trip in the stunning Sea of Cortez on October, design specifically for learning all the cruising skills you don't learn in regular sailing classes.
This trip allows you to spend as much time as you need to master the skills you need for coastal as well as offshore cruising. If you have already taken those classes and it feels like you don't really have it figured out, or if you are starting from scratch, this trip is for you. There are no tests or workbooks, no homework or gold stars. You are going to operate the dinghy, learn about engine maintenance, anchor skills galore, navigate, take the helm, stand watches, docking, knots you actually use daily, water and electricity conservation, sail trim, motorsailing tricks, galley tips and meal planning, even provisioning if you like. No pressure to learn a certain level of skills, it's up to you and it's all available.
There will be lots of time to explore ashore, snorkle, swim in the clear warm water, dinners ashore in tiny villages as well as small towns, and time to chill and read a book. Of course, you will go home with a boat load fo new sailing seasters from all over! That may be the best part.
These skills are taught by a life long sailor and cruiser, Capt. Holly Scott. I have taught sailing since 7th grade and am told I am a great teacher (blush). I taught for the big companies for a few years and stopped because I became frustrated with their need to overcomplicate everything. If I can teach a 5 year old kid to sail, it can't be too complicated, right?
Here are the details from the website. This is a Women's trip and there are already several gals signed up, so don't delay!!! Let's do this!!!
