      But really is that just him knowing the way the instructor operates and knows he's up to snuff and it isn't worth the time and inconvenience?

    @TibbyGVA Před 5 lety +44

    I used to teach sailing. Here's an easy way to remember the Clew corner of a sail: as it's the flapping end of the sail, you can say that it has "no clue where it's going". Fair winds!

      Dylan Magaster What stood out to me is that docking a boat is definitely NOT easy!
      I think a trip you should really consider in future is Ireland. We're just coming to the end of the Foyle Maritime Festival here in Derry which this year, was the finish destination for the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race. It's the second or third time we've been a destination.

    • @LoanwordEggcorn
      @LoanwordEggcorn Před 4 lety

      Go gently, but keep just enough boat speed to maintain steerageway. Go fast enough to steer.

    • @patrickholcomb9628
      @patrickholcomb9628 Před 4 lety +1

      pertinent for any boating activity. especially for the JACKASSES ON JET SKI'S/SEADOO'S!
      you may or may not be a motorcycle or jet ski owner/operator, but y'all tend to think you own the waterways, Vessels and vehicles that have a MUCH LARGER INERTIAL PROPERTY shouldn't have to watch out for your dumbasses... nope, rule on the water is less maneuverable, has the right of way... suck it, GO AROUND!

    I like any teacher, but if I’m paying, and their talking to me like shit, regardless of their title and experience, I’ll bit my tongue, then I’ll tell them to get fucked. I’m paying to learn, and if I’m trying to learn, then their is no need to talk to anyone, like shit. And it’s no good for the student, as their confidence goes, what little they had to start with, and you can’t learn, when you’re stressed out, especially as a beginner at anything, period. So this instructor was patient, and gave his knowledge, so that’s a good teacher.

      Try a smaller yachat club local. Pop by a boat ramp where sail boats launch, and view setups. Not too difficult once you've seen it a few hundred times. All boats are similar, learn on a smaller boat (20'). There is less gear and in winds less than 15 kts, easier to work lines.

    Dude, that's the worst boat driving skill I saw by far lol you need to calm down and go easy on the boat otherwise you will explode everything. Boat responds slowly to steering and engine commands. Keep in mind that there is no rush, take all the time you need or do it all again. It's a lot different than a van! Good luck bro and mostly, stay safe. Have fun!
