Sailboats are as exciting as watching paint dry on a wall.

Re: The Joy & Tranquility of Sailing

Well, I used to think that way, but reading the wind and racing other snailbotes IS fun. Think I'll pass on the TransOcean races though..too tuff for me.

IF the wind is right, snailboting can be terrific. Trouble is, you really can't just go when and where you want to. Plus, it is a pain to learn all the engine parts scattered all over the sky.

Guess that is why JC was on board a snailbote recently, people thought he would have expertise in that. <gg>
