Took the sunfish out with Sherri tonight. We've been doing this for about 6 weeks now. I've heard she loves it as much as I do. I bought one of those blue tooth connected speakers, downloaded a bunch of music, and play it while we sail around the south end of the lagoon. We bring too much beer. She holds on to the rudder and steers the little boat and I hold on to the sail. Usually, I yell at her a lot cause she gets distracted and steers the wrong way. That wouldn't be a problem on a power boat, but this one has a boom that can swing violently around. It's aluminum alloy. Its hard. It can easily knock a person out. Last week I calmly told her there was going to be some aluminum flying, cause she got distracted. It swung around like a bullet, and she didn't even duck. I did, but apparently, her being a bit shorter, saved her from getting a little egg on her head.
Tonight, however, was a nice low wind relaxing sail...no one died.
