What a weekend! Spent the weekend with some of the top sailors and instructors in the World discussing the @sailcanada Cruising curriculum and how to make it better for our students and coaches.

I am humbled to be joining the ranks of these fine sailors and coaches as a fellow Instructor Evaluator for Sail Canada.

The highlight of my weekend though was spending it with Gillian West, whom I have idolized since I was a little water rat! She is one of the founders of Sail Canada and an instructor I have always wanted to emulate. She is a force to be reckoned with and such an empowering person to be around. Such an honour and a great experience. ❤

I have filled my professional coaching bucket this weekend and my spark is back! Looking forward to the projects and opportunities to come 😁❤⛵ #sailors #sailcanada #cruising #sailingincanada #finallymeetinginperson #ieclinic2022 #learntosail #coaching #fillingmybucket #watchoutworld @hellorobertdavis @simplysailing @brucestot @sailingvancouver @kim.moffat.459

Did you know? YAS!! Sailing trivia is back! As the Crow Flies: The most direct route from one place to another without detours. Before modern navigational systems existed, British vessels customarily carried a cage of crows. These birds fly straight to the nearest land when released at sea, thus indicating where the nearest land was. 🦅 🤓 #canadaboating #boatfun #keepsailing #funtimes #trivia #interesting #maritimetrivia #interestingstuff #sailing #sailingboat #sailors #nauticalfun #nauticalknowhow #nauticaltrivia #lovetosail #sailinglife #sailnelsonbc #yourpocketsailinginstructor #crowflies #crows
