Our featured guest speaker will be Wendy Kravit and her topic will be "Do's and Don'ts for Extended Cruising" with a slide presentation.  Wendy has been a guest lecturer at Anne Arundel Community College for the "Sailing Skills and Seamanship" course. She is a licensed captain and in the Coast Guard Reserve.
 

Capt. Wendy Kravit learned to sail with the University of Wisconsin Hoofer’s sailing club in Madison, Wisconsin sailing and racing dinghies, 420s and scows. One of the primary reasons she moved to Annapolis in 2003 was to resume sailing after spending many years too far away from the water and purchased a C&C 30 to start getting into cruising.  After a few years, she upgraded to an Island Packet 37 and  aside from the typical Chesapeake Bay gunkholing, she sailed Eos round trip to Bermuda twice and made several trips up the eastern seaboard as far north as Provincetown on Cape Cod.  She earned her USCG Captain’s license about 4 years ago.  Wendy most recently single-handed her Island Packet 37 to the Exumas, Bahamas for the winter of 2013-2014.  She is currently outfitting her latest and third sailboat, an Island Packet 420, for off-shore sailing.   


Women Underway at HHSA is an effort to enhance the role of women in all facets of sailing, including cruising, racing, and all aspects of seamanship. All HHSA women and their women guests are encouraged to attend. Whether your interest is racing, cruising or both, this group is a wonderful way to connect to other HHSA members and increase your knowledge and love of sailing.
