It
is almost impossible to talk to someone who does not have a fond memory of an
adventure in their life involving a small boat. There is a universal human attraction
to water–and to floating on it. Water, like wind, reminds us of the unpredictable
and untamable. Floating on the water reminds us that life's most exciting experiences
are impermanent: and when grasped, like water itself, run through our fingers
and are gone...... Here, with words and pictures, we will rescue a few. |

By this time we were going like a bat-out-of-Hell. The
forward lean of the mast in
my tired grip and the unbalanced pressure of the big sail were pressing the
bow of the Junior so deep in the water it was in momentary danger of
submarining and completely swamping us.
