You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Fred,
You're a winner no matter what! Have fun!
Give the competition a hard time.

Hope my youngest is going to sail as well as you, when she starts sailing opti!

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!


1st race was pretty bad..He missed the start and finished towards the end, (they started with the 420's because the first race started really late in the day)...

He gets all confused and tottally misses the start, only to realize they had already began while he was trying to come to windward..silly boy..

The second race was much better, and finished quite well..apparentely, with only 2 of 6 races (count the best 5), he seems to be 12th overall...at the end of the day.

Man..pretty good for the first time in the real racing league, where no more team points count...

Parabens Frederico..Papa.
