John_Flint Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Ahoy! I be lookin' fer to learn how to sail, and the best method I can fathom is to find a ship that I can work on, maybe for a couple of weeks during the next school break, which would be after the end of the month of November.

Rumba Rue Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Since you're in S. Calif. check out the Ocean Institute in Dana Pt. for sailing lessons on the Pilgrim(s). Or contact the San Pedro Maritime Association for learning on the Johnson ships. Here in San Deigo you can contact the Maritime Association that handles the Californian, who do training.

Black Hearted Pearl Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 This might be of interest to you. This is the place where tallships can post open positions for crew. Most tallships require you pay something for your volunteer time. These scholarships can help with those costs. American Sail Training Association click Billet Bank for open positions and such. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
