点评:Our family of 5 (mom, dad, 18yo, 5yo, and newborn) chose Cruise Abaco because of their unique captain-by-day offering for a 10-day charter aboard a Leopard 42 while also learning to sail. With no prior experience, we weren’t sure if getting our entire 101 to 114 ASA certifications would be possible while parenting, cooking, and ‘test driving’ our future life-style. We read the curriculum and prepped as much as possible before our trip, but were so grateful to get Will as our captain and instructor. His calm demeanor and laid back approach helped us absorb insights without letting us forget that sailing is an adventure, not a chore. He perfectly balanced vacationing with learning, and you could tell he was genuinely committed to our success. As both a long time sailor and resident of the Abacos, he was an endless source of knowledge. Overall, he was a pleasure to have on board and we look forward to staying in touch throughout our future endeavors. Whether you’re seeking a patient instructor, a knowledgeable local, or a competent captain to helm your adventure, be sure to ask for Will!
翻译:我们一家五口(妈妈、爸爸、18岁的孩子、5岁的孩子以及刚出生的婴儿)选择了Cruise Abaco。该机构提供为期10天的Leopard 42游艇包船服务,期间还有专门的船长亲自指导,帮助游客学习航海技巧。由于我们毫无航海经验,我们不确定在兼顾育儿、做饭以及“试体验”未来生活方式的同时,是否能够顺利获得ASA 101至114级别的认证。出发前,我们仔细研究了相关课程内容,并做了尽可能多的准备。但我们非常感激能有Will担任我们的船长兼教练。他沉着冷静的作风和随和的态度,帮助我们很好地吸收各种知识,同时又让我们牢记:航海是一场冒险,而非苦差事。他恰到好处地平衡了度假与学习,从他身上能感受到他对我们取得成功的真诚用心。作为一名资深航海者兼阿巴科斯群岛的居民,他简直就是知识的宝库。总的来说……他很擅长团队合作,我们期待在未来的各项活动中继续与他保持联系。无论您需要一位耐心细致的指导者、知识渊博的当地人,还是一位能够带领您展开冒险之旅的出色船长,一定要找Will哦!
