In this video we’re sailing upwind in 30+ knots of breeze in Johnstone Strait during the VanIsle360 race with a double-reefed main sail and #3 jib. Lots of sails were destroyed in that leg, including the #3 jib we’re flying in the video.

Today, we're slicing through the waves of confusion to bring you a crystal-clear picture of sailing certifications. Whether you're a landlubber dreaming of the high seas or a seasoned sailor looking to credential your skills, understanding the ins and outs of sailing certifications is your first step to nautical mastery. Set Sail with Knowledge: Understanding Sailing Certifications Sailing certifications are more than just a piece of paper; they're your passport to the world's waterways. These credentials are proof that you've been trained to handle a vessel safely and knowledgeably. But with so many types of certifications out there, where do you start? The ABCs of Sailing Certificates Before you can command a ship, you need to know your jib from your genoa. That's where courses like the 'Basic Keelboat Sailing Standard' come in. Offered by the US Sailing Association, this course covers everything from sailing terminology to essential knots. Crewing Like a Pro: Beyond the Basics Once you've got the basics down, it's time to join the crew. 'RYA Competent Crew Skills' by Alison Noice is an indispensable resource for anyone looking to become an invaluable crew member. This book, published by Adlard Coles in 2020, takes you through the paces of practical crewing skills, ensuring you're a welcome addition on any deck. Charting Your Course to Certification So, you've hit the books and the decks, and you're ready to prove your mettle. But what's the process like? From classroom learning to hands-on experience, gaining your certification is a journey that'll test your skills and resolve. The Uncharted Waters: Why Certify? Now, let's tack away from the conventional and consider the unexpected benefits of sailing certifications. Sure, they validate your skills, but they also open up a sea of opportunities. Imagine sailing into a foreign port and being welcomed into a community of fellow sailors, all because of the credentials you hold. Navigating Your Nautical Future Whether you're seeking adventure, dreaming of competitive racing, or aspiring to charter luxury yachts, your sailing certifications are the tailwind pushing you forward. They're not just proof of your ability; they're a testament to your commitment to the craft of sailing.
