ONLINE COURSE OVERVIEW
Much has been written and published about the fundamentals of cruising life — boat selection, navigation, weather, and so much more. We know that you will take the time to build your foundational knowledge by taking advantage of much of this material, ideally before you set out. In this class we add to that foundation so you can benefit from our commentary, experiences, and philosophies developed while putting universal sailing principles to work. With the proper framework you can then begin to focus on the areas you need to learn in. Our hope is that you come away with a better understanding of what to expect as a cruiser and a solid foundation from which to start your journey into becoming a sailor.
TOPICS INCLUDE:
- Philosophies of Sailing
- Boat Selection
- Navigation
- Anchoring as High Art
- Weather
- What we wish we knew before

Riley & Elayna
Riley bought a yacht with no idea how to sail. Elayna saw his moustache dancing and wiggling one night lit by the candescent background lights of a small Greek Island. They learned to sail together over the coming years and started a YouTube channel which eventually enabled them to continue their journey around the world for the last 9 years. They both love the ocean and sailing and would like to help people also get out there and have their own experiences on the water.
