Sailing

Recommended Posts

Used to do a fair bit when my dad lived in Cornwall, Really want to start doing some again, my dad's still got a mirror and a snap dragon, but he lives in Exeter now and the mooring price's are ridiculous on the Exe, so the snap dragon's in the garden. I wouldn't mind getting a towing hitch for my car sometime so I can take the little mirror down to the coast though. He also used to have a laser and a Westerly Nimrod, which I kinda miss, they were both a lot faster and more fun that what he's got now, haha.

Laser Picos are fail.

I currently have a Topper, which is somewhere in the garden. But I used to sail Lasers and Hobie's pretty regularly.

Then my dad bought a Taser, which was simply too big for the lake and my dad was fed up with the lake asking to use it and left it in shit condition, so we gave that to our cousins.

I haven't sailed in a while, do to the local lake being turned into a fishing reserve, WTF?!

I had (stillk have, actually) a Topper. But my parents sail a 32ft yacht pretty regularly and I occasionally join them. It's kinda fun but personally I'm not convinced it's worth the hassle. Bikes are more fun for me at the moment and don't cost approx £1bn.
