Hello,

I am an engineering student from Slovenia and I have been obsessed with sailing for a couple of years now, but never got the chance to try it. I don't have a lot of money, no access to a boat, only one uncle in my family who used to race big boats but does not anymore, otherwise i do not know anybody who could take me with them.

I want to get experience so I can start renting boats, while I am also studying to get my skippering license.

Because of my limited funds and a packed summer, I had the idea to do some crewing on shorter trips in the Med.

Would messaging yacht clubs and asking if they could connect me with boat owners who would be open to take me with them on their trips and show me the ropes, as well as signing up to do some short crewing, be a good idea?

Again, I am located in Slovenia if that helps.

How would you approach getting experience in my situation?

Thank you!!

Hello,

I am looking for a faulty Jeti or Futaba radio to fix up as a project.

​

Thank you!

Hello fellow rc pilots!

I have recently started to really like fixing stuff related to my hobbies, so I thought that I could apply that same idea to this hobby.

​

I am therefore searching for a faulty/broken Futaba (preferably newer t16 or t18) or Jeti (any Jeti) transmitter, to fix up and challenge myself along the way.

​

Please DM me if you have something lying around.

​

Thank you!
