Hi, i'd just like to say hello to everyone as this is my first post =) it's probably in the wrong place...sorry if it is. Anyway, i'm very interested in learning how to sail, i have had a small cruiser on the Thames which i sold last year. On reading some of the magazines and posts on this site the dream of sailing your own boat across the channel and maybe the Med seems great. I have been looking at courses but i'm not sure where to start. I've read on this forum that i may be able to get some sailing experience crewing. Or, if anyone has any other suggestions i would be glad to hear them.
