Reminds me of my (pretty recent) sailing course :) I went on a few short sailing trips after and other people on the boat only trained on the boat we were on, which was much fancier than the one I first had to deal with. The original one had: - tiller instead of wheel (my brain could not) - no bathroom (bucket available) - no furling foresail (got to change to a storm jib in strong winds) - no auto locking winch - no auto pilot - no depth sensor - no gps/screen - no fuel gauge - no clutches (only a couple of jam cleats that didn't work really well) - retractable engine (so we had to lower it/pull it up manually, was fun to use it to stabilize the boat a bit when winds were strong) Boat was also a bit smaller 31' vs 34'. I'd still take my course on that boat if I had to redo it, it was a deeper learning experience.
