very disappointed .. Carl sat at the stern and yelled at everyone rather than teach ... he even yelled at the people at the gas dock!! he didn't teach us man overboard procedures which is important component of qualified crew.. I see how he tries to comment on some of his other complaints and tries to blame the other person which is what he will do here too I'm sure .. just know that when you pay for a full course - YOU SHOULD GET THE FULL COURSE!!!

My husband and I took a Cruise & Learn sailing lesson to the Gulf Islands with 2 other students last week at the VSC. We had an excellent instructor \Carl\ who not only taught us how to sail but introduced us to Montegu Harbor, Poets Cove, Birds Eye Cove , Pirates Cove and Ganges, Saltspring Island. There were very few other boats cruising so moorings and dock space was always available. The sailing was wonderful, meals had quality ingredients ( we all took turns cooking), and the boat Clara ALLEGRO, a Beneteau 36, was comfortable , easy to dock and fast. This was our second and notably best charter. We highly recommend.
I'm from the Yukon and the VSC always manages to accommodate me to get some sailing in when I come to Vancouver; in fact they recently let me join one of their races which was incredibly fun and exciting. Carl is tough but he is a very experienced sailor and you'll walk away with lots of practical knowledge. All the best teachers are a little tough though, aren't they? :) Great club and my partner and I look forward to learning lots more over the coming years.
Carl, just wanted to thank you for the great trip to Bowen Island on Saturday, We really enjoyed the cruise, I'm looking forward to booking sailing lessons with the VSC in the future.
We joined a Bowen Island sail with 3 other couples last Sunday. Great weather and our sailboat ClaraALLEGRO was a blast- fast and very comfortable. Nice people and our skipper Karl was very friendly. We have decided we will learn to sail this year.
