hello All,
Would like to take up sailing and jump in. I am thinking of getting a 27 '
Catalina ( its real cheap). Never been sailing by myself before, just a couple of day tours on charters.
I understand that it would be wise to start slow, but at my age I need to move fast

. I do plan to take as much instruction as I can over the next few months.
So, any
advice would be useful ( just not don't do it

). I am hoping to get enough hands-on experience over the next few months to get comfortable cruising around the bay for a few hours in nice
weather.
Is this complete lunacy ?
Any
advice is accepted.
Cheers
