We used to go to Arran on holiday a lot. My son is not a great sailor but I could always find the right spot on the boat that got him through. Outside if you can, and be able to see the horizon. Just back from the front of the boat is best
Hubby is not great on a boat and neither am I. My daughter went on a week's school art trip to the island ( an hour's sailing time ) They had to leave early due to storm force winds. It was so stormy when I went to meet the boat I could hardly stand up. It was the last sailing for two days. I watched all the green faces coming off and there was my daughter tripping off. The first thing she asked was could we get chips
Of course she was the one who had sailing lessons and wind surfing lessons and kayaking lessons.....guess she learned to cope with rough seas. Now she wants to learn to dive.....She can pay for those herself.
I am looking forward to our October break....it seems so far away though.
