Adam,
Faxis' advice is spot on. "You need a sea daddy on Pontchartrain. Check out the yacht clubs down there. Look up websites" is how you should go about this for little or no money. There are low key races each wednesday night during the spring and summer. Many boat owners are BEGGING for crew (crew that can be counted on to be fairly regular). They will teach you "on the water".
Suggest you start by going to one of these 3 websites:
NOYC.org
CSA.org
SSYC.org
All have forums where you can start a thread introducing yourself and asking if anyone needs inexperienced crew (Rail weight). Someone will bite.
I used to sail on Lake Pontchartrain regularly but have not since my children were born. Lost my Catalina 27' in Katrina, that dirty bitch.
Good luck. Careful, can be addictive.
