Hello all.
11 years ago I was another happy wanna-be-sailor. So I decided to start learning about the art of sailing: how to start the "engine" of that thing; how to change directions and where are the indicator lights??; how to put more speed; how to stop when at full speed (by the way, where's the ABS?? what, no Airbags??), etc. Then after 6 months of sailing I took my "boat driving" license. Those were great times and I got the sailing virus all over me. But then (and there's always an annoying "but") because of my professional activity I was invited to work in another country, with no sea or lakes around, and more important, my two daughters were born. And my sailing went on a forced stand by...
Now I'm 41 yrs old and, 11 years after my 1st and last sailing experience I'm back in action and I'm an happy wanna-be-sailor again! I will be relearning to sail a boat (a Golfiño G7.25 - a safe, funny and damn fast boat!!) for the next months and hopefully this time I will be ending up with my Captain license and my own boat
