SAILING

Safety at Sea: The Prudent Mariner Practices

On May 13, 2025
By Kimberly

Join me TONIGHT as we dive into:
⚓ What defines a “critical dynamic situation” on the water
⚓ Practical drills you can do to sharpen your response
⚓ How to train your crew for calm under pressure
⚓ Real-world examples and what we can learn from them

Whether you’re cruising or racing, preparation saves boats – and lives.
This isn’t theory. It’s what you’ll wish you practiced when things get real.

Thank you for joining us this evening – here’s links to some of the items I use sailing, and please leave comments or questions about tonight’s webinar below. I’d love to continue the conversation! Kim
