Can you read a nautical map? Gauge the wind? Know your port from starboard? Bow from stern? Do you know what a keel is and how it works? Do you know what it means for a sail to luff? Do you know what a halyard is? Or the difference between tacking and jibing?Hurricane2k9 wrote:

No I don't (hence why I want to learn). You act like that's advanced nuclear engineering. I'm not saying it's child's play but I'm no slouch, I'm fully capable of learning.Jay wrote:

It's an expensive as shit hobby. The old saying goes "boats are a hole in the water where you throw money".Hurricane2k9 wrote:
That'd be pretty cool. I'd just like to be able to know how to sail. It seems like a fun hobby and it certainly cuts down on expenses when you rent a boat since you don't need to hire a captain. We've also got a sailing club at UMD, would be nice to join it.

Lasers are good boats.Hurricane2k9 wrote:
The lessons do look kinda pricey but not insanely so.
e: The local organization has different levels of membership, the highest one gives you free rentals and you'd already break even just by renting a Laser seven times.
