 THE CRUISING LIFESTYLEEnsure cruising is right for you before diving into boat buying. Discover what cruising is all about, without owning a boat. Learn actionable steps to take before searching for your boat.
 SHARING THE ADVENTUREWith over 400,000 miles sailed, John will reflect upon some of his most important lessons learned while cruising, including the importance of being present, openness to adapting to new cultures, and clear communication with family and friends. This class will teach you to go from a dream to an action course to becoming a cruiser yourself.
