Who was out this weekend?.....

Dont have to travel the world of course.

I am doing my DI in a few weeks time, and am teaching at my home club for the next few summers!

We need to keep some decent instructors in-country, as otherwise people will go on a sunsail / neilson / wildwind / whatever sailing holiday, see they like it, come back to sail in the uk, and have TI's teaching them!!

Only thing I have left to do before Instructors .. is the 1st aid ... and thats in 2 weekends time!

I haven't done my PB2 yet but I can do it for free at my club inland so I expect I will do it there

Josh - Ok everyone is saying go coastal, but do you have experience of sailing on costal waters, either racing or pottering.

I did my course at UKSA (Fantastic centre), part of the course is the Seamanship, if you haven't got your wind v's tide right you get it all wrong.

So go where you want to, it also depends where you want to teach. If you don't have your PB2 yet, do that on coastal, its a) more fun, b) good experience.

Also there are not many 'coastal endorsement' courses for instructors so u may as well just go coastal to begin with.

I am hopefully doing my instructors soon, but can't decide whether to do it inland (as that is where i am) and then upgrade at a later date or pay the extra money and do it coastal

What does everybody else think?
