Title: learning to sail, small sailboats, & coastal rallies
Post by: passagesfromtheheart on January 27, 2026, 07:35:01 PM
Just interviewed another CPYOA member a few days or so ago -- member SkipperD! SkipperD is a newer Com-Pac Picnic Cat owner! Some topics we cover in the podcast include:

* how he started sailing (only less than two years ago!)
* his sailing experience with ASA's curriculum and with local sailing clubs in his area
* trailerable sailboats/small sailboats
* boat shopping experience
* finding sailing community
* preparing to sail solo in the upcoming Florida 120 coastal rally event this May!

...and much, much more!

Check it out, below -- and thanks so much, again, for supporting fellow CPYOA members!
