A family of six charters a 38-foot monohull, the *Calypso Express*, through Horizon Yacht Charters in Nanny Cay, British Virgin Islands, to complete their ASA 101 and 103 sailing certifications.3:52 Over five days, the crew practices basic sailing maneuvers, tiller steering, docking, mooring, and knot-tying under the instruction of a captain named Martin.6:38 The trip includes stops at Norman Island, where the crew visits the floating bar and grill, the Willy T, and Cooper Island, where they wait out heavy rain and storms.10:05 The crew reports high temperatures and poor airflow in the boat’s cabins, which leads them to eat most meals ashore rather than cooking in the galley.15:17 The course concludes with a return to Nanny Cay, where the family completes their certification requirements, including a written exam and practical skills assessment.16:40 The experience highlights the challenges of learning to sail in a tropical climate while managing a large group on a small vessel.
