Hi Mark, Jane
When we booked our course with Learn2Sail we didn't really know what to expect or what we'd be expected to know, so we just packed our sense of humour and came along.
What we got was a lot of knowledge and a fantastic experience which has left us yearning to do more! I will be back to do the Day Skipper course early next year - I really can't take another week off this year :o(
I know our course was called Competent Crew but it could just as easily have been Comfortable Crew, I could easily do that a few more times and continue learning. The boats were great, the environment excellent and the company convivial.
Mark, you were brilliant. You showed tremendous patience, and the manner with which you corrected our mistakes (repeatedly I might add!) without putting us down or deflating our fragile egos is to be envied by every trainer worldwide. Thanks.
As you know Harri was nervous, which as her dad who obviously knows nothing, I could do little to reassure her when we were heeled over, but you did that, so that by day 3 she was happily hopping about, handling sheets, taking the helm and tying me in knots. Success.
I'm sure you have hundreds of references but I what I would say to anyone thinking about learning to sail or just experience sailing, do Competent Crew with Learn2Sail, it's like a great holiday, only better.
Lastly Jane, thanks for picking us up, dropping us off, keeping us provisioned and making sure we got everything we needed.
Thank you.
All the best
Vincent & Harri

Kikko We simply caonnt afford a resort vacation period.I'm having to book the trip myself with a website where you can get deals on hotel rooms and bundling flight + hotel. It's going to be about half the price so we can save our money for food and travel expenses.
