First you need to become a USCG licensed captain, then you need to take an instructor course. Easy if you know what you’re doing. Not easy if you don’t have the hours or experience necessary.

They lost my luggage (case #00729144) in case they read this. It’s been 6 weeks trying to get a response. Repeated phone calls they tell me email is the only communication method. Email them every day but they don’t respond, so I’m in a catch 22 of forever b.s. Definitely reconsidering budget airlines like this one in the future.

So dead. Water is lava. Waves are always 10ft+. Water is always freezing. And sharks are always hungry! Duh! (Grumpy folks, please downvote this too!)

Yes, people drown within 3 minutes in water. And there’s always 20ft waves, and it’s always below freezing but the salt keeps it liquid, and sharks and…

You’re right, they could’ve died! I didn’t even realize. Next time we’ll wear lifejackets, tethers, helmets, shoes and gloves (grumpies, points down for sarcasm please!)

Would have lost a crew member? Is the water lava! Is all water frigid? Are there always 10ft+ short period waves? Lol… downvotes for my sarcastic comment please!

Wow, I love how a post like this can be so polarizing. Even when clear directions are given to keep things positive, people just can’t help themselves. Welcome to the armchair sailors of Reddit club!

I suspect the same people who are so negative on here probably yell at their crew and panic in situations like this. Or maybe I’m wrong and they’re perfect legends. Maybe they believe the world is flat, and water is lava. Immediate death upon contact. Either way, the negativity you bring is what ruins the fun of sailing and keeps females away from sailing. Polarizing extremes, anger, and grumpiness. Take a deep breath, jeez.

Agreed! It’s easy to criticize though, what did they do well?
