  • yes, I've enjoyed this particular set of the sailing videos and this instructor very much. He is clear speaking and a good instructor. I only wish I had an hour and a half long uninterrupted video, not these 1 & 2 minute clips. then again, I just wish I was out on a boat right now.

  • This could be a much better series. Each video should be 10 minutes and then label each one like Part 1, Part 2, etc. The next part continues from the last one.

    The way it is now there's it's too little and too much jumping around.

    What you have is good. The explanation is good & video is good. You just could use better organization.

    I am a beginner and I'm looking to learn sailing.

  • AWAY WITH THE CAPTIONS!!! I can't see the vidio at all! :(

  • These movies I have seen from your school are crap. Not enough tuition. It's like you have absolutely no idea how to teach. Tell them what your going to tell them. Tell them. And then tell them what you told them.

  • Picos ftw ^^ They're so fun to sail, they go fast, and the jib is so small, the boat is so low, and it turns so EASILY!!! I love Picos...

  • Yeah these vids are great but you could use better organization.

  • I doubt you have ever sailed..your the kind o' guy that turns a key and goes fast In simple terms for a moron like you is Stick metal in slot and make things go vroom vroom.Seriously its a hard sport,yes but it is very enjoyable

  • Just started sailing last summer in a small dingy and I caught the wind and learned how to find it and get about. These are helpful as I'm thinking about trying a larger boat. Thanks.

  • i dont think hes ever sailed before cuz thats a pussy boat lasers and 420s would kick that boats ass
