When you sail you need to be ready for anything but the essentials are:
- a boat, complete with mast, sail, rudder, centerboard etc. (fully rigged)
- a bouyancy vest
- secure footwear
- a hat and sunscreen (very important, because the water reflects UV rays at you so you don't just get hit from the top)
Keep in mind that there will always be more little things to make it safer but those are definitely important.
Happy sailing! :)
Check out the book "25 Things Every Sailor Needs (and why)" for a good list of the essential equipment everyone needs to go sailing.
You also may need a towel for after, also water proof or wind proof jacket and something to put your wet clothes in after :P
