ISSA Keelboat Skipper Student Textbook
The Keelboat Crew Course has been designed for people who want to sail a boat thats not a sailing dinghy and wet, nor is it a yacht and pretty ponderous and expensive. Keelboats are lively, agile, fun to sail and ideal in light winds because they are so light. The two day ISSA Keelboat Crew Course was designed by Sail in Asia so that we could teach people in a two day program what usually takes 3 or 4 days on a yacht.
