Customized options are available!
You have the boat in your marina, dock, or location where you are keeping the boat. You have made a lot of life decisions this year, and you are still at the dock. You did your shake-down cruise.
Ask yourself where do I feel “disjointed, out of control, uncomfortable”? Have a laser coaching session, get your action plan ready and you will be ready to leave before you know it.
What skills do you feel you or your crew need to master before leaving?
Departure Day – this day will be like any other day that you leave the dock with one exception, you are not coming back. You are setting the compass heading to your first destination, and you are cruising. Now it begins to sink in. All the preparation, studying weather reports, routing, uploading waypoints, and you are at the helm, you have left the marina, and made your final turn from what had been your home inlet.
Active Cruiser Support – active cruisers with big-picture guidance on routing strategy, weather insight, regional planning, maintenance troubleshooting, new equipment, and more.
Deb supports you on the relationship side of learning this new lifestyle together, and/or she will assist you when you have those curve balls that happen out of left field. So, lets figure it out the actual problem, assess the situation and give you the best recommendations of what to do, where and when with known resources. While through this calming fears, doubts and worries.
There is no substitute for instruction, learning on your own boat. Cruising will often have unexpected challenges with situations that happen at sea, or remote areas, and/or out of range of professional help.
