	It is very difficult to go pro. Its all about being the right person at the right time. Learn a trade ie. be that person who people want to have on the boat when some thing breaks and needs URGENT fixing. To go pro its not enough to be only a good sailor, u gotta bringh that 4th dimension allong with you that makes people want to sail with you. For alot of people its just being that really good guy/gal that people enjoy being around and sailing with. Its worth considering the 2 following ideas. learn about engines, u'll never be as knowledgable as a mechanic but u would be surprised how simple the most common problems are to fix if u know where to look. learn about wiring ie. the display units. and be able to identify the reason... say the boat speed/wind speed is on the blip.(da problem is not always at the top of the rig) glenn
