When we first contemplated cruising years ago, we were filled with doubts and questions: everything from Can I do it? to How do I do it? to Do I even want to do it?
This website is designed to help you answer these questions for yourself. We do this by sharing our experiences and inviting other women cruisers to share theirs as well.
This site grew out of the Women and Cruising Seminars that we have been offering at boat shows and cruiser gatherings throughout the US for several years.
We developed the Women and Cruising seminar to give women (particularly novice sailors) an opportunity to voice the hundreds of questions they often have on their minds as they contemplate setting off with their partners or on their own.
This web site supports and expands upon the material that we hand out in the seminars. It is growing as we invite other cruising women (and friends!) to share their advice, perspectives and hard-won experience.
Ultimately, it's about making friends, making cruising our own, and getting out on the water and enjoying our lives!
We welcome YOUR contributions to Women and Cruising.
