Back in 1983 I waxed the hull of my shiny new Prindle 16 outside of the Biloxi yacht club and headed out to race some Hobies that were playing around. As the windward hull lifted out of the water I hooked up, hiked out and promptly lost my footing. I remember seeing the rudder go by as I was slammed into the hull and released into the water.
Then there was the time I turtled a small cat off of Indian Rocks beach when tropical storm Dennis was approaching. Freaked my mother out, she called the Coast Guard, Sherrif, EMS, Fire the whole 9 yards.
