Whether you’re planning a weekend cruise or chasing long‑distance adventures, this page gives you the straight‑forward advice you need.

You’ll find answers from real sailors who have been there.

Why Join Our Sailing Community?

Our readers are everyday people who share what they learn on the water, not just experts in a lab. That means you’ll see tips that actually fit into a busy schedule – like how to spot early signs of sail wear before a trip, or quick tricks for keeping crew fatigue low on a multi‑day passage. Because everyone contributes, you’ll also get fresh ideas on routes, weather apps, and budget‑friendly gear.

Another perk is the honest gear reviews. We skip the sales pitch and tell you if a waterproof bag really holds up in a storm or if a new autopilot saves you time at the helm. When you read a review, you’ll know exactly whether it matches your boat size, budget, and sailing style.

Top Articles You Can’t Miss

One of our most popular reads is How long can a sailing yacht go under sail?. The piece breaks down the factors that decide a yacht’s endurance – from hull design and sail plan to the crew’s stamina and supply management. It even offers a simple checklist to help you plan a weeks‑long cruise without surprises.

Other must‑reads include quick guides on anchoring in shallow water, step‑by‑step sail repair basics, and a seasonal rundown of the best sailing spots in the UK. Each article is written in plain language and includes real‑world examples you can relate to, like a family’s weekend trip to the Solent or a solo sailor’s crossing of the English Channel.

We also publish short video clips and photo stories that show how a well‑prepared crew handles sudden weather changes. Watching a real crew reef the mainsail in a gust helps you picture the steps before you need to do them yourself.
