Review: SeaLife Sailing School made sailing a pleasure!
My boyfriend is an avid sailor, and we were planning a 3-week sailing holiday together. Only problem? I have really enjoyed spending time on his boat, but didn't really feel confidant that I could handle his boat in the event that something should happen to him on a longer cruise. He's tried teaching me the basics, but he's not a sailing instructor, and let's face it, as his girlfriend, he may have been up against some sub-conscious resistance to his attempts to educate me...

I reached Jeremy Gow of SeaLife Sailing, and was instantly put at ease. His entire approach to teaching and cruising seemed to fit with what I was looking for. I joined a 4-day long weekend course; we all hit it off and gelled as a crew; great stops at marinas with good pubs and coffee shops, and quiet, secluded anchorages as promised. The food was amazing, but most importantly, I got off the boat feeling like I can confidantly motor the boat, sail it, anchor it, and get it from point A to point B!! Success!! What's more, I had a great time and made new friends!!
