I sail at least a couple times a summer. I usually take those little sunfish out (not really sailing but its all I have access to on my own). I got certified or something last summer, took a course with my Dad, that was pretty cool. We were sailing, fuck I forgot, a boat with 2 sails and a lot of things to hook up, but the hardest thing was getting out of the harbor without a motor, just backsailing and shit. Of course there were like 300 other boats in the harbor and we hit other boats many times.

'Sailing on the deep blue sea, oh the captains mate am I, and there's no where I would rather be than by my captain's side! For the sun is bright, and the wind's just right, and our sails are hoisted high! Working on ship is where I'll always be, for the captain's mate am !'

Me: 'How come every time we talk, the subject of my mum using drugs comes up?'

James: 'It doesn't.'

Me: 'It does though.'

James: 'Yeah, it really does.'

(Ten minutes later.)

James: 'Ha! Your mum on drugs!!!'

Driving a 130 HP jet ski isn't easy there chief... I'd like to see you set it into a 540 spin at 40 miles per hour. Yes, I have sailed. I sailed JY's, Sunfish, Lazer's and I also dabbled in windsurfing.

i never said it was easy buddy, its just i find it to gradually be less fun where as on a sail boat, different weather conditions make it more interesting

Not a big fan of hobies unless it is cranking, they tack so damn slow!

try a laser with a huge competition sail in 4-5 foot waves about 20 min after a HUGE rain storm.

thats a rush.

a little more of a rush when your boom breaks and you capsize in the middle of it.

yes this did happen to me and a friend.

The best is when its blowing 35 knots, and the boat windard to you capsizes on the starting line, and starts taking you and 5 other boats off the line and we all start to capsize. That happened and it sucked, totally got schooled that race, The laser is by far my favorite boaT!

i sail lasers and sunfish

sunfish isn't sailing? ask any pro, or any sailer, small boat sailing is the most intimate (?) sailing there is, and the most difficult. all big boaters start on small. and all small boat sailers are the best in the world

I agree with the small boat thing but sunfish is not a good racingboat, they can't point and sail area is too small. Very easy boat to sail. Good for screwing around in but not for racing!

try going to worlds or masters, you may rethink. but i guess i can agree on some levels. but a laser is probably the best on that aspect.

snipes and j22's are the best, when I was 16 me and my friend who was 18 took fourth place in the Snipe Nationals at my local lake. it was pretty sweet to beat a bunch of old guys who sail every damned day. We know that lake soooo well though

'He got fired? What did he do?'

'He jumped off of the roof again'
 
thats sooo cool line.

are you an avid sailor or you just knew the lake? and what lake? where?
