Pre-trip list

In order to take part of an adventure like this one, we need to bring some "good" to the team. I've used a motorboat for many years, I have my boater "permit" since forever, but on a lake, on a motorboat, it's not the same thing.

I've owned a catamaran with my best friend Dave so I have some experience with the wind (plus kiteboarding)




So in order to be a true sailor, I created (and I was given suggestions) a small list of things to do:

- Learn sailing terminology in french and english
- Learn sail navigation (on a catamaran, you can test the limits and crash, not on a sailboat)
- Get my amateur radio certification
- get my first aid certificate
- Learn the most importatn knots
- Buy the missing equipment to live on board

I'll come back later to explain each thing in details... It's not as easy as it seems.
