SeaTactics School

The Windwise course was fantastic, I really appreciated how it was broken down to use the mechanics of wind to your advantage. Chelsea is incredibly knowledgeable and explained different wind tactics and scenarios in a way that was easy to grasp and immediately useful. I especially appreciated how much emphasis they put on practical strategies for racing — not just what to do, but why it works. After the class, I felt like I had a major edge on the water, with a much better understanding of reading shifts, learning how to read clouds, and making smarter tactical decisions related to thermals.

A great introduction to understanding and forecasting weather, wind speed and direction. The materials used are comprehensive yet easy to understand. Chelsea's live webinars are well organized and interactive. She is a terrific teacher. High recommend Chelsea for this course and her forecasting services if you plan to be racing in any major regatta.

Chelsea has a way of explaining complex topics so that everyone can understand and apply the information. She does this with any topic, even those with variables and infinite parameters, which is why we have been able to successfully use her methods in all our sailing - both offshore and buoy racing. The amazing part is that it all works! From sea breeze setup, to convergent shores, to thermal plumes - learn her methods and apply them, and you will be amazed how much your sailing improves.

The class was fantastic. The material was really well explained and left me wanting a lot more information. I do think because of the level of detail it was more relevant for race courses with legs that are 2 plus miles long. I found it thoroughly enjoyable.

The course is really well structured. The information is absorbable and clear. It helps connect the dots of all the bits of weather info you’ve learned over the years, and Chelsea teaches how to apply it to your sailing.

I recently completed the wind wise course and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. The course was incredibly well-structured, covering everything from basic meteorology to racing strategies. Chelsea was knowledgeable and passionate, making the learning experience both educational and enjoyable. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to enhance their skills. A truly valuable and rewarding experience!
