Beautiful lake

Looks like its got some good wind there as well [thumbup] All this sailing talk makes me want to go out and get a boat now... Maybe in a few years

Are there any sailing certification programs in the US? We have the CYA (Canadian Yachting Association) here and they provide all the training to learn to sail. Upon completing certain requirements you are awarded a level (From White Sail level 1 up to Olympic Trainer levels). When I was in Sea Cadets we used the CYA system to learn. I got up to White Sail 3 before I aged out of the program (cadets that is). Really thinking about getting back into it and trying to get my Bronze Sail 4 or 5.
