Interview

Why are you sailing?

Because I want to know how it feels to be on a sailboat since I have never been on one before, and I want to learn about how it works. It would also give me and opportunity to escape the stress of work and college and allow me to spend some quality time with my mom.

What are you most excited about the trip?

I am excited about being on the boat itself.

What do you hope to gain from your experience on board?

Experiencing sailing, meeting new people, and having and opportunity to share my story with others!
