Great article Bruce. I both teach ASA courses and handle charters at our club. I love when young kids are onboard as they take the most interest in the operation of the boat. I put them at the wheel first chance and teach some rudimentary skills. Most of the kids can’t get enough of it while the adults usually prefer to kick back and enjoy the view.

So yes, getting the crew involved is one of the best way to have a great time sailing.
