Are you the son who did the story about the young woman we saved at Masonboro a few months ago? David told me he had a son who wrote the report for the local newspaper. (for readers: we were windsurfing near an inlet in 25 knots when one of my buddies discovered a woman trying to swim back in through an inlet. She was about a mile out and had been swept out by a current that peaks around 4 knots....she was crying and had no PFD. It was 5:00 PM in March )
It'll be great meeting you and having you come aboard some time. I've been pestering your dad with questions. The latest to pop in my mind has to do with getting a
liferaft for just sailing out to Ocracoke....but that's another thread and I hate hijacking this one. I've already beat people off the topic.
It WAS a fantastic weekend, and we now have a new sailor ( my fiance ). This her first sail and she's hooked.
L8r,
