Hello from Washington DC

[djtopper]

Well, almost ... Manassas, VA. New to sailing. Fell in love with sailing a Lagoon 380 last year and am desperately trying to get training and cert. to bareboat charter a 440/Orana/etc asap.

I spend way to much time drooling over boats on Yacthworld.

Welcome aboard! I lived 40 yrs in the DC area, 16 of which in Independent Hill, halfway between Manassas and Dumfries (we called it "Dumassas"). Good luck with the plan.

I call it (fondly) Man-asses.

It helps me remember how to spell it and is somehow oddly apt.

Aloha and welcome aboard!
Good to have you here.
kind regards,

Welcome to the Forum.

I'll be going through your area soon to visit a friend in Chantilly. I've done plenty of drooling over what's on Yacht world before. Good luck with your training. Have Fun!

I worked in Man-nasty for 5 years. Welcome aboard!

Welcome aboard! I am sitting at work here in Dumfries and have been addicted to YW for many years! I call it boat porn

We sail out of the Lower Potomac, Kinsale/Callao area

P.S. You can sign up for some sailing courses through the Annapolis School of Seamanship or another similar program
