Dear MSSF,
I’ll just start off by saying thank you for your support in sending me to the CISA clinic this year. The conditions were perfect for my crew, Harrison Vandervort, and me.
With breeze over 15 knots for two out of the four days, we got in some very beneficial heavy wind practice as well as some moderate wind practice on the other two days. At this clinic I picked up many new skills including; better boat handling and boat speed as well as a new outlook on the tactical side of sailing. The evening sessions after sailing also proved to be very informative about other aspects of sailing like wind surfing and ocean racing.
Overall, this clinic was extremely beneficial and I never could have attended without the help of the BYC Maritime Sciences and Seamanship Foundation.
Sincerely,
Christophe Killian
