Nice to be back sailing... 2 Years, 7 Months ago Karma: 0
Pointed to this site by some members of MCSC, told to come here to find people to sail with. First week with MCSC and love the program already, much cheaper than owning a boat.

Sailed a lot as a kid in the Niagara River/Lake Ontario/Youngstown, NY area, mostly centerboard kind of stuff, some racing. New to sailing in Milwaukee though I've lived here for quite a while, not even sure where to buy gloves (local suggestions appreciated).

I have a medium rating at MCSC and would like to get more experience in the water around here, so if any of the sailing newbs need to get out I'd love to go, share what knowledge I have. Or if you just want to sail...

Thanks, Jim.

Hey Jim - Welcome!

Glad to see some MCSC folks get on here. I remember being frustrated that there was no place to go to get in touch with other members rather than an informal exchange of emails at the end of a class.

Thanks for joining the forum and welcome!

The sailor responds to the subtle shifting of the wind, the imperceptible ebbing of the tide. He changes course. He trims his sheets. He sails.

There is nothing half so worth doing as simply messing about in boats
