  • these dudes need to clear the hockers out of their throats before making another video.

  • Nice guys, I appreciate what they're saying, but if you want to learn to sail, learn on a dinghy: you get a much better sense of what's going on - on a typical keel, if you do something wrong, the response is too slow, and you just don't get the feedback.

    You'll get wet on a ding, but you'll be a much better sailor for it.

  • The most common learning vessel is a J-22

    One important aspect to the J-22 keel boat is that they are big enough to forgive beginners mistakes. If you are too slow to sheet out the main for instance, a J-22 will keel pretty severely, but not capsize....a dingy will get turned over hard. Finding yourself in the water under a boat on your first lesson is NOT a good place to be.

  • Brilliant, did you review the video before posting it?

  • he needs to quit smoking

    geez!

  • Oh I didn't know that Terminator can sail!

  • If you gonna use the term Expertvillage. Stop uploading videos with fuckup audio. You people have tons of shitty audio videos on the tube. Start deleting!!!!

  • terrible sound

  • Hobi-cat all the way

  • I can live with imperfect video quality for an instructional video - but for the life of me - I can't understand why ALL these expertvillage videos have such terrible audio! Perhaps the whole village of experts can find one audio engineer?
