Hi I’m a 18m finishing his last year of highschool who is really interested in pursuing a career that involves sailing with preferably getting the qualifications to captain (ambitious ik). I have no prior sailing experience and live in AZ which obviously doesn’t have a ton of opportunities to learn a lot of these skills. I’ve really set my sights on this goal and was wondering if I could get some advice and ideas on what to do next so that I can be able to make this possible. I was also wondering if there were any classes, schools or colleges that would support and add on to my sailing experience. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
