New Sailing Experiences

Today I had a few new experiences sailing:

• I went sailing in salt water - down at Cypermort Point off of the gulf
• We were sailing a 18' HobieCat - which is a dual hull boat
• I got very wet while remaining on the sailboat - the water was actually quite refreshing, having cooled off during the hurricane
• We tipped the sailboat - actually none of us were on it at the time because we could not get it turned around so we had all gone into the water to try turn it without the weight on it; as the last person got off it tipped
• I laid down for a large chunk of our sailing time - it was one way to stay out of the way of the boom

And one not new experience:

• despite sunscreen I still managed to get sunburned - don't worry, it was still worth it.
