Greetings from Washington state!

Hello, everybody!

I've lived in the Pacific Northwest for most of my life. I have always dreamed of living on a boat and sailing as far as I can go, and with a remote job and the improvement of satellite Internet, I think that I might finally be able to pull it off.

My girlfriend and I currently live in the Olympia area, and there seem to be some programs here to learn the basics of sailing. We are complete beginners but are very excited to dive deeper into this world.

Re: Greetings from Washington state!

Welcome to CruisersForum!

I would suggest updating your profile with your boat make & model or “Looking” in the "Boat" category. This info shows up under your UserName in every post in the web view. Many questions are boat and/or location dependent and having these tidbits under your UserName saves answering those questions repeatedly. If you need help setting up your profile then click on this link: https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums...ml#post3308797

I would happily help more if the link above is not enough.

Re: Greetings from Washington state!

I would also amend your location with USA since Western Australia is abbreviated WA.

Ah, thank you! I didn't think about that.
