2010 Sailing Plans
Back in December, in this post, I mentioned that I recently built a sailboat. Actually, I’m not quite finished building it, but I’m close enough that I’m starting to think about sailing it. And sailing other boats too.
I haven’t written much about the building of this Eastport Pram or the topic of sailing at all because it seems a bit off-topic for this web site. But, I think can say this safely: early last week, Pat and I enrolled in a “Cruise and Learn” course. It’s a five-day course leaving from Sidney, British Columbia (south end of Vancouver Island). It starts on May 30. In the meantime, we have “on shore” course work to do. By the time we arrive back in Sidney, we will have earned a Canadian Yachting Association Day Skipper certificate (providing we pass the written exams).
