Hi Phillipe
Welcome. There is a lot of information around here. Check the resources page on the main site. http://sfbaysss.org/main/resources/
I started small as well, O'day 22, sailing around the Bay. This year bought a Wilderness 30, an 80's racer. First boat with a spinnaker so lots to learn.
I sailed in the Singlehanded Farallones race last week and had my first OBE (overboard breakfast experience)
Seasickness and fatigue prevented me from finishing the course.
My plan is to go out more to try to adapt to the motion. I would be glad to call or email you if I am going out. Generally a couple weekends a month. I sail out of Richmond.

All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it is vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.
