  • I help my friend launch her boat on the south coast of norway. We sail to some small rocky islands and practice anchoring with shore fasts.

I have an app in VR to try and learn to sail but find it a bit janky to use so have not done a whole lot with it. I am sure I speak for others as well who would appreciate and love a simple how to video of the basics of sailing!

    • @grahammckain4492
      @grahammckain4492 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      you really need to get a small dinghy like a sunfish or something to learn to sail... I'm afraid you probably wont fully understand until you get wacked in the head by the boom a time or two. I would hate for you to try for your first time on a big boat and find out the hard way.

    • @Matt-ug3kr
      @Matt-ug3kr 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If by solo sailing you just mean around a lake or intercoastal waters, it's really not that bad and you should just do it. I got a Catalina 25 swing keel as a first boat last year and learned on my own with youtube videos. None of my friends and family know how to sail. If you get a small and light enough sailboat for your first, there really aren't bad consequences for messing up so you can learn at your own pace. Now i've met people in the marina and started racing which has really accelerated the learning curve. Gonna sail from Louisiana to the florida keys soon.

    • @jeppymongoose393
      @jeppymongoose393 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Matt-ug3kr For me it is the idea of just getting on a boat and going. Had I the resources and freedom I would just love to sail down the east coast of North America and just keep going south, stop as I want, explore when and where I want. Cross an ocean for a giggle and continue on living the sweet free nomadic life. Of course I idealize, it is a dream after all, but it sure does sound great.
