Hawaii Ocean Sailing Expedition

Paul Exner’s Hawaii Ocean Sailing Expedition is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to living aboard a bluewater sailboat immersed on a voyage in the Hawaiian Islands.

Hawaii is a fantastic venue for sailing! The conditions offer a wonderful blend of variety to challenge any sailor practicing their art — the Hawaiian Islands are an ideal “class room” to learn applied-seamanship in a hands-on setting — and experience what it’s really like to live aboard a sailboat.

Learn Paul Exner’s approach to SAILING that he calls: Autonomous Full-Stack — a set of methods proven to guide sailors to align everything they know, sense, and think about skipper-level decision-making.

When you train with Paul Exner, you learn what you need (literally) to sail anywhere.


Hawaii Ocean Sailing Expedition

 

To go anywhere by sail — confidently — you must have bluewater skills, experience — and the know-how to use a hands-on approach to problem solving.

Bluewater sailing is a “practice” — the same as any professional discipline like law, medicine, engineering, or business… you must practice your “art” under the circumstances only found outside the classroom in the tangible world.

Learn how to analyze your surroundings and plan routes based on your analysis — the routes you create guide us to sail challenging bluewater passages and make landfall at remote Hawaiian anchorages.

 
 
 

Align everything you know, sense, and think about skipper-level action and decision-making — in doing so you’ll (literally) go anywhere by sail.

PAUL EXNER — AUTONOMOUS FULL-STACK SAILOR (TM)

Exner believes that great sailors are good at everything: navigation, piloting, helming, vessel operation, log keeping, anchoring, sail trim, mechanical and electric systems, rigging, marlinspike, legal regulations, seamanship management, bluewater, coastal sailing, haul-out & land-storage systems — they also have a working knowledge of yacht design & construction.

If you want to develop sailing-autonomy for yourself, this live-aboard sailing opportunity is for you. You’ll begin with your experience and skill as it stands in the moment, and learn to call upon it — Paul Exner will personally coach you and help develop your sailing ability to its fullest (guaranteed).

You will learn to go anywhere by sail.

SAIL COGNITIVELY (TM) … Glean “seamanship awareness” by observing a multitude of stimulus and information coming at you. From your analysis of what’s happening around you, you’ll become proficient at making safe and sound decisions affecting your crew and vessel at sea.


Hawaii Ocean Sailing Expedition is an opportunity to learn a master-level approach to sailing that Paul Exner has created: The Autonomous Full-Stack Approach For Master Sailors (TM). This approach is proven to strongly emphasize the nuance of living aboard a sailboat on a 24/7 basis. You learn to confidently plan and make passages and see first-hand what a well prepared live-aboard sailboat looks like — you’ll gain skills you can use again and again — you’ll learn a powerful method to (literally) go anywhere by sail.
