Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Introduced to sailing by an oyster fisherman friend in Falmouth about 3 years ago. And since have gone through the standard dinghy training, practicing in dinghies at the local club in Bristol where I'm based, day crewing in keeled boats with friends around the South West coast, and recently got a shiny Day Skipper card to be scoffed at. But keen to build sea miles as crew incrementally small trips and inshore waters to begin with. What I enjoy about sailing is that it makes one think/be in the moment/plan/assess risk/be outside in the most beautiful places on earth.
