Is it late to start sailing
NO AGE IS TOO LATE FOR SAILING!
Late is only when you no longer try.
As long as you’re healthy and can get to boat – you can sail. That’s beauty of sailing because you can do it for life!
Sailing isn’t sport only for young. Sea doesn’t ask for birth date. Only conditions are desire, basic health and will to learn.
Starting in 30s, 40s, 50s or later even has advantages:
• Mental rest – Being on water is unique kind of meditation
• Physical activity – Improves balance, strength and coordination
• Social aspect – You meet people from various backgrounds
• Challenge and gaining new skills – Learning new things keeps mind young
• More patience
• Better understanding of dangers
• Less pressure for quick success
• Greater appreciation for every moment on water
How to start?
- Enroll in course – without overthinking (you’re not marrying boat)
- Learn from more experienced
- Enjoy
People start sailing even at 60+. Some start with grandchildren, some alone, some as couple. All find freedom that has nothing to do with number in personal ID.
If you can walk to boat and climb into it – you can sail.
Wind is equal for all. Let’s go!
