Sailed on an international FJ this weekend in a regatta in Hoorn, NL. What a pretty harbour! An amazing experience sailing by windmills, historic houses, canal boats, old north sea fishing boats, etc... First day the winds were pretty light. I'd say our main goal was to keep the boat moving. The winds picked up on the second day so our goal shifted to "have fun, don't capsize!". Was so fun sailing with Dutch sailors and learning some Dutch sailing terms (I already knew "Schipper" bc it is like our "Skipper" but with one of those "schk" sounds we don't use in English). The group was so kind, friendly, and welcoming! It was a really nice experience and beautiful scenery. They had a USA sail for the boat I was on too! It was also cool seeing the flying dutchmen fly! They also taught me how to use a trapeze and held the boat stable for me to practice on land.
