Ever woken up at anchor and realized your boat isn’t where you left it? That sinking feeling (haha sorry) can ruin a night. Whether you're settling in for the evening or waiting out shifting weather, anchoring holds everything together.

Spoiler alert: It involves way more than lounging on deck with a cocktail (although there can be some of that too!)

Stop watching other people's sailing adventures and start planning your own - because the gap between YouTube viewer and certified skipper is smaller than you think.

Docking under sail is one of the most rewarding skills a sailor can learn. It requires focus, timing, and a solid understanding of how your boat moves through the water when the engine is off.

Spinnaker handling turns downwind sailing into something a lot more exciting for every sailor. When everything lines up, it's fast, smooth, and feels like the boat's finally showing off what it can do while sailing downwind.

You’re out there. The wind picks up. The sea gets choppy. Maybe you need a break. 

After nearly a decade of running sailing adventures across the Caribbean, I'm making a move that might surprise some of you. Come November 2025, we're relocating our Caribbean headquarters from the British Virgin Islands to St. Martin.

Picture yourself out on the water when whitecaps start dancing across those turquoise waves. Your boat begins to heel harder than expected, and you hear those famous words echoing in your mind: "If you're thinking about reefing, it's already too late."

Picture this: You're at the helm of a 45-foot catamaran, wind filling the sails as you navigate through crystal-clear Caribbean waters. Your heart is racing from pure exhilaration. Behind you, your crew (who were complete strangers just days ago) are cheering as you nail a perfect tack. This isn't just another solo travel experience. This is adventure with purpose, challenge with community, and independence with connection.

Every sailor, whether just starting out or looking to sharpen their skills, needs to understand how to change direction using the wind. That’s where two essential maneuvers come into play: tacking and gybing.

Ready to discover why three-quarters of your fellow adventure athletes are making sailing their new obsession?

Here’s the deal: when your sails are trimmed well, your boat moves better. It feels steady. You’re not fighting the wheel or wondering if the wind’s playing tricks on you.
