点评:We did a weeklong live-aboard sailing trip to secure the required ASA certifications to be our own bareboat (bareback) skippers. Jalil Jacallen was our captain and instructor. We covered 100 nm in a week! It was a lot of hard work, but we had a BLAST! We sailed on Speculation, a solar-powered 44 ft Leopold catamaran. Highly recommend that boat. It has all the necessities, and quite a few perks! Early mornings, late evenings, class and knot tying in the AM, sailing drills all day. Lunch usually on a mooring ball, followed by snorkeling a bit before getting underway again. Captain Jacallen made sure we knew stuff technically, then patiently, and with kindness, guided us through the sailing drills to experience handling the cat on all points of sail. He was tough in the sense we drilled and drilled and drilled again, but he wanted to be sure we could not only competently handle the boat, but also learned the practical aspects of life on a boat. Captain Jacallen made sure every stop was a prime setting, either for snorkeling, getting carry out pizza by dinghy, overnight mooring, or a fun dinner ashore. The crew had never met before the sail, but we were friends by the end! And, we think Captain Jacallen had a bit of fun too, especially towards the end of the week when we had some idea of what we were doing! LOL We will definitely be back for further training/sailing with Captain Jacallen on Speculation! We highly recommend GoSailVI, and highly recommend Captain Jacallen on Speculation. PS We literally have hundreds of great photos and videos, those attached below are but a few of them.
翻译:我们进行了为期一周的船上航海之旅,以获得成为我们自己的无船(无鞍)船长所需的 ASA 认证。Jalil Jacallen 是我们的船长和教练。我们在一周内航行了 100 海里!虽然很辛苦,但我们玩得很开心!我们乘坐的是 Speculation,一艘 44 英尺长的太阳能 Leopold 双体船。强烈推荐这艘船。它拥有所有必需品,还有不少额外福利!清晨、深夜、上午上课和打结,全天进行航海训练。午餐通常在系泊浮球上,然后浮潜一会儿,然后再次启航。船长 Jacallen 确保我们了解技术知识,然后耐心而友善地指导我们完成航海训练,体验在所有航行点上操纵双体船。他很严厉,我们一遍又一遍地练习,但他想确保我们不仅能熟练地驾驶船只,还能学到船上生活的实际方面。Jacallen 船长确保每次停靠都是绝佳的场所,无论是浮潜、用小艇打包披萨、停泊过夜,还是在岸上享用美味的晚餐。船员们在航行前从未见过面,但到最后我们成了朋友!而且,我们认为 Jacallen 船长也玩得很开心,尤其是在周末,我们对要做的事情有了一些想法!哈哈,我们一定会回来接受 Speculation 上 Jacallen 船长的进一步培训/航行!我们强烈推荐 GoSailVI,也强烈推荐 Speculation 上的 Jacallen 船长。PS:我们有数百张精彩的照片和视频,下面附上的只是其中的一小部分。
