Get your summer #sailing season started right with the #learntosail issue of @SAILINGMAGAZINE. In it, I’ve got a piece on #sailtrim for #sailors wanted to do more than sheet and go.

"How do I convince my teenagers to #gosailing with me?" (It's the question I'm most often asked by readers.) Here are some ideas, in @SAILINGMAGAZINE: https://t.co/dGq9dOCe2E

Racing #sailors have been drafting for decades. Birds are evolved to draft. What took airlines so long? https://t.co/ooMEg8hGgt

Anchor held through the night and during and after the storm front. #turningcircles #socialdistanced #sailing

I wonder if the @chicagoyc and @RacetoMackinac know that their promo page features exactly one #personofcolor, and she is portrayed as a servant? Seems as if #sailing should take the year off to reflect on who we are and want to be. https://t.co/HIlF4FpzmC #blacklivesmatter

Since most #reopening regs require that we #sail with people we live with, I imagine teams bunking up in a pre-season #quarantine. Mastperson in the couch. Trimmers on camp-pads. Navigator between the owners. And the bowperson in the tub.

I'm looking forward to sharing ideas with the expert #sailors at the #FlyingScot #Sailing Association at a special online membership meeting on Monday, May 11th, 2020. The FSSA has survived and thrived for a half a century, thru a #familysailing focus. Brilliant!

When #climatechange provocateur @GretaThunberg chose to sail across the Atlantic Ocean instead of flying, #sailing social networks exploded in a fiery, albeit brief, debate. Quickly, sailors found common ground. Read my latest in @SAILINGMAGAZINE. https://t.co/tA84IBGEgn

#Sailors know a thing or two about #quarantining. And it has some benefits, like, for example, learning to get along. I write about #camaraderie in this month's issue of @SAILINGMAGAZINE.

"Focus only on what you can control." Tips for living in isolation from, of course, a #sailor. https://t.co/eSf1W9aWzw

[MKE Sailing Center @MCSCSailing]

Congratulations Holly! MCSC’s Holly Church has won the prestigious US Sailing Community Sailing 2019 “Outstanding Organizational Leader” award. ❤️⛵️❤️

#RIPHilaryLister, the first quadriplegic person to #sail alone across the English Channel and the first disabled woman to circumnavigate Britain solo. https://t.co/roobWGM0F9

Since the #IMOCA60 is an open rule (anything not expressly not permitted is permitted), designers have been unleashed, resulting in nearly autonomous singlehanded #sailing boats promising speeds of 30 knots for hours at a time. Will it trickle down? https://t.co/Pkfq6hTecT

@teresamfc @teresamfc @MCSCSailing certainly bolsters the averages!

[Saving Sailing @savingsailing]

A necessary self-evaluation for every #sailingclub, #sailingcenter and #sailingteam. #equity. https://t.co/Jmw3lBpoDf

American #Sailors care deeply about the environment and warmly welcome @GretaThunberg, who will sail across the atlantic this month aboard the Malizia II to attend the UN summit on climate https://t.co/fXkrXtetcG

How to know if you're really a sailor? Hint: #Bucketlisting doesn't count. Read more in this month's issue of @SAILINGMAGAZINE: https://t.co/sloHLIby8g

Can't wait to see #maiden, about the #allfemale "crew who beat the odds to win a major race and knocked the sexist world of #sailing on its ass" https://t.co/rx2vuptDpi

[Saving Sailing @savingsailing]

Glad to have saved our paper charts, logs, light lists, a protractor, sextant and an analog speedo and compass. It was more fun that way, anyhow. https://t.co/E9IvOcZZCK

Why I can't completely let go of the symmetrical spinnaker. #gosailing https://t.co/GEfbilnaMR
