Sailing Lessons with Lake Union Charters & Adventures

On a cloudy, overcast day we met Captain Ron on the shore of Lake Union to take part in our very first sailing lesson. Many companies start their sailing lessons in the classroom, but Lake Union Charters and Adventures likes to get you out on the water and operating the boat immediately. I was little intimidated at the thought of sailing my own boat, but Captain Ron was patient, relaxed and fostered a non judgmental environment for learning.

The two hours we spent on Lake Union zig zagging across the water were some of the most relaxing and memorable moments of my week. There is nothing more invigorating in life then getting out of your comfort zone and trying something new. It is even better when you can try something new with someone you love. 

For those of you who are interested in trying something new, looking for a creative idea for a date night or just want to learn more about sailing Lake Union Charters has you covered. You can charter a sail boat for any special occasion or if you just want to create a memorable evening out. 

Seattle is surrounded by so much water I love the idea of getting proficient enough at sailing to be able to navigate the water on my own one day. Lake Union is such a bustling place of activity it is fun to be in the heart of it all from the fun vantage point of a boat.
