I have recently signed myself up to a 'Learn to Sail' RYA accredited course at Brightlingsea Sailing Club, it is only early doors but it has been amazingly good fun. I have always liked the water and always fancied trying Sailing but life was always getting in the way as can be the case sometimes if you allow yourself to lose sight of your aspirations.
I saw this course advertised and thought that it was an opportunity not to miss. I'm so pleased I did too, it's superb. The feeling of the power of the wind aligned to the fact that I'm a complete novice lacking skill and control certainly gets the adrenaline flowing; I hope soon to have much better control and a modicum of knowhow.
If anyone needs someone to crew feel free to drop me a line; hopefully in a few weeks I'll be some way towards competent; that's reassurance for you!
Anyway, it would be good to see some photos and hear some tales. I'm in one of the Wayfarers below.
