I couldn't imagine it where I am now - Deep Cove is at the end of a 1km long narrow high sided channel, wind funnels down its length. Short tacking would be and understatement at 100-200ft from shore to shore. Maybe some day I'll gain the confidence.
Remember back to my sailing school days. A friends father, an experienced professional ocean racer with only 2 14yr olds for crew, offered a tow to a young lady on a sailboard. Under full sail towed her right down the length of the fairway at the Hamilton Yacht Club, turned the Thunderbird 180 at the end and tipped his hat as we passed her heading back out. Guess my cajones have not grown in fully yet cause I'm not ready to try that one.
