Sailing - Part 1
Shiver me timbers.
Started up the sailing lessons this weekend. Went really well ,despite the rain and choppy waters. I did get a little queazy from all the pitching and rolling but didn't hurl. Two full days on the water and I'd say I've learned to sail, just need more practice. Had lots of fun on the second day when it was less instruction and more following orders from our skipper, Neil. Next weekend is the second and last part of the course then I write the exam.
That spectacular vessel you see above is the ship I'm learning on, it's a Tanzer 22. She's a real beauty ain't she! After this course I'll be able to take a boat up to 30 feet in moderate winds. Can't wait til next week!
