We're finally sailing! Without any official sailing school lessons or courses, we have been teaching ourselves how to sail. We both started from zero without any sailing experience when we bought Ujud. Over the time of ownership, reaching this point has been a relatively slow process in comparison to the many sailors we encounter in person. We live aboard our small sailboat and it's taken time to gain confidence about the very many things that sailing involves. It's nice for future us to be able to look back to today's achievement as a couple, we are sailing with both the mainsail and the Genoa. Both sails are reefed down so that we're not overpowered. Our teachers have been: Petr Šimon Jana Šimonová James Khoo Wan Azuar Bill Robinson AU Wei Eric Oh #24hourtravellers #selftaughtsailors #sailingcouples #sailboats #hallbergrassymonsun31 #boatlife #sailMalaysWe're finally sailing!
