38. What sailing students struggle with most (and how to get ahead)
About this episode
If you have been thinking about learning to sail by doing sailing courses, then you don’t want to miss this episode! I’m talking with someone whose business it is to help others embark on their sailing journeys, and I get to ask questions like how can I prepare for a sailing course and what most students find difficult to learn.
My guest is Tim Geisler from Nautilus Sailing, who shares his story of how he and his wife were faced with adversity and really needed to rethink their life, and then came up with an idea of starting a different kind of sailing school. Tim is passionate about sailing and teaching, and you can hear this in his stories. We also talk about the benefits of certifications and what it's like to learn to sail on the Nautilus liveaboard courses.
