Tom Tersey and Frank Bummer of Maryland School of Sailing field unscripted participant questions across a wide range of sailing topics. On buying a used boat, Tersey recommends starting with a used boat around 25 feet with outboard power, stepping up to 30 feet after a few years, and applying a cubic rule to understand the proportional jump in mass, cost, and maintenance between sizes.1:26 On seamanship, both instructors define it as anticipatory thinking — cataloguing failure scenarios such as engine loss, broken standing rigging, or rudder failure, then preparing responses through training, hardware, and procedure.6:57 Navigating Norfolk's busy port, they advise calling Virginia Pilots on Channel 16 to report your route through the converging ship channels near Cape Henry.14:43 On man overboard prevention, they stress tethers for two-person crews, keeping a partner in the cockpit whenever one person goes forward with the autopilot engaged, and note that a victim's visual profile shrinks 95% within 10 seconds of separation.30:18 Offshore fatigue management covers two-to-three-hour sleep blocks, cumulative judgment impairment, and the value of a trusted mate as a decision-making check.40:32 Additional topics include bobstay chafing prevention using a double bridle on a mooring ball, composting heads as a holding-tank alternative, and instructor selection criteria including consistency of method and student feedback.23:27
