Publisher's Synopsis
"We are all qualified by our experience..." In Switzerland we used the mountains in the summer for walking, climbing, camping, and learning to look after ourselves in a rugged environment. In the winter the our students all donned their skis and took their expertise to the highest standards in all the skiing disciplines, including ski mountaineering. The sea can offer comparable opportunities. Whether we are sailing small dinghies, or larger boats, we never go out without learning something new about the sea, seamanship, nature or the weather. More importantly we learn about ourselves and our relationships with our fellow seafarers or team members. (From the Author's introduction)
