testimonials
and advices from former Puddle Jumper
sv vobiscum

"We had good camaraderie and everyone had a great time. The experience turned out to be more about the people than about the sailing — perhaps it always is."
sv Serenity
2016
"Don't let anybody tell you not to go, or when to go, or how to go, or where to go . Do your own research, make the preparations you deem necessary, choose the destination and route that you want, and then go. Listen to advice, but don't let it dictate your choices."

"What a great experience. We learned a lot about our selves, each other, the boat and the ocean. "Some cool things: Sea creatures such as dolphins, whales, boobies, flying fish and turtles; phosphorescence; sailing for long periods without having to touch sails or steering; crossing the equator and swimming around the boat in the middle of the ocean; the camaraderie with fellow Puddle Jumpers."
sv Sangvind

"Don't let it scare you; it's downwind and so easy and steady. Squalls yes, but mostly relatively mellow ones, we sailed often with genoa only to make it easy on the autopilot and easy to take in sail for squalls at night . Yeah, you loose some speed but if there's enough wind it's okay, and you sleep better."

"Just go! But do stock upon tequila and tortilla chips before you leave Mexico."
