   Geesh, it didn’t look like THAT when I took sailing lessons in the later half of the 1960’s! Very nice!!

   The first year I took lessons on a Sprite (small jibbed boat with a centerboard).

   Second Summer, Aquacats. If you could sail an Aquacat, you could sail anything (or so said the instructor). It was a jungle gym with a loose-footed mainsail and no jib. Most of the time you had to do a K-turn to tack.

   All due credit to Steve Turner, a remarkably talented aerial photographer. He just swooped in one afternoon on a helicopter and took some fabulous photos. He had some air time left after a professional real estate shoot. Since 1960, nearly 2000 LSS “staff alums” have gone on to some impressive careers in a wide variety of fields. Hundreds keep in regular touch and remain friends for life. Steve, a sailing instructor from the 60’s cabana days, is among them. Thanks again Steve. Drop in anytime.

     John, do you really want a guy in a helicopter to “drop in anytime”?!

   Helicopters make far better wind generators than drones. Now if we only had an answer to low tide…

     There is an answer: 6 hours.
