Sailing looks posh from a distance, but it's a HARD problem, and if you don't succeed you could die. There are physical and mental struggles, endurance, knowledge, judgement. But the challenges are discrete, and all contained within a smallish box. And you can upgrade your box like an arcade racer. There's jargon! So much jargon! And there are sunsets and beaches in the bikini latitudes. And there's travel to new places, new foods and new people to meet. It looks like an amazing balance of challenge-and-reward, if you can afford it.
Enjoy your courses. I'm envious.
