Hi all,

I have wanted to sail since I was a child, I have now decided that I will start. I am 34 and have booked a level 1 Dignhy sailing course. I can not wait to start.

I am very well travellef in Europe mostly overland by car, I am intending on going on a bike tour, but the my aim for next year is to do it in a sailing boat. After I have done lots of courses and had lots of practice.

Welcome to sailnet, for you my friend the worm has turned. This is a great site and some really good people to help ease you into this new addiction.

Welcome aboard! Tell us more about you, like where you're from, whether you're sailing alone or with a family, etc.

Hi and welcome from Essex ! Once the sailing bug bites you there is no turning back. Dinghy is a nice intro into our addiction. Also, if you have a marina close by, put a sign up on the noticeboard. There are many who are looking for someone to give them a hand and you will learn a lot as you go along.

Agreed...as many have stated quite explicitly...sailing grabs you. It can be an obsession...but you will love it. Look at my handle...chrissailorman...it has a way of defining you!
