There are a number of people that do this. One couple are John and Amanda Neal, on their Halberg Rassy 46. You can get more information on their school at www.mahina.com.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"> Another approach would be to visit the US Sailing website, where they have a whole slew of sailing schools listed (http:\/\/www.ussailing.org) Good Luck&#8211;Steve<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\" align=\"center\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear SetSail, Can you recommend a good &quot;cruise and learn&quot; course that my husband and I could take with our <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/setsail.com\/cruise-and-learn-courses\/\">&#8230;Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-tech-talk","category-seamanship-forum"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1421"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1421"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1421\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36346,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1421\/revisions\/36346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setsail.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
