This unique seamanship course is designed for those who have some big-boat experience, yet feel a need to fine-tune their sailing skills. Capt. David Bill and his students will head out each morning on a different boat to expose crew members to different rigs and how they perform in a variety of conditions. Sail selection, reefing, deck safety, heavy-weather sailing, anchoring, and steering with sails are among the many topics to be covered in this stimulating, on-the-water course.

David Bill is an outstanding instructor. He focuses on his students and
their needs and continually works at making CRAFT OF SAIL II a total learning experience. End quote
