We teach sailing and seamanship in the Navy to make competent seamen of our personnel, who will be the naval leaders of the future. We aren't interested in making yachtsmen of them. We encourage them to enter races in order to find an atmosphere which, like combat, stretches ability and endurance to the limit and allows character to emerge which can reach for that extra margin required for victory. We send our personnel to sea to learn that most basic characteristic of a professional seaman: a deep-seated sense of humility in the face of nature and her master. Our objective is simple – to produce the best possible sailor or officer fro the fleet. Captain John B. Bonds, USN (Ret.)
