go sailing

I went sailing once. I got seasick, and I was on a lake. A small lake. In fact, every time I’ve ever been on a boat I’ve gotten seasick. Here’s a story no one asked for: I went on a school trip in a really old-fashioned ship, like the ones from those pirate movies with Johnny Depp. I was listening to what they were saying, and then the water got a little choppy. I almost threw up on my teacher. Three other girls got sick and so the captain and his people(?) told us to go down into the ship, but then the water got very choppy and they sent all of us down there. We were all kind of freaked out about it. Oh, I was so sick. That’s the story. But seriously, go sailing! It’s fun!

my first yourney on a sailboat is sceduled for the end of April. Four people on an 37feet boat. Im am realy looking forewardto this!

I want to go sailing with my husband in the BVIs

I love sailing. There is nothing more exilerating, the movement of the boat through the water, the wind in the sail and blowing through your hair, the ocean spray, the smell of the sea. I’ve sailed off California, Fiji, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, etc. Here’s a shot sailing from Gili Air to Gili Trawangan near Lombok in Indonesia. It was a beautiful day. Crystal clear water. You could see the coral and sea grass below. Colorful fish of all description were everywhere as we maneuvered the boat through the reef to land on the beach of Gili Trawangan. And there begins another story.

i went sailing in the bay in san diego—it was super relaxing and soo worth it. next time i want to try the catamarans though!

I did a bit of sailing for DofE back in year 11 and 12, and i loved it!! sailed to remote campsites and set up camp, and then sailed around for a few days… it was awesome
Now i live just down the road from a place that i think you can do it… now i just need to find someone to come along with me…
although… Sydney is not known for remote places… so i dont think it will be as rustic here…

Bought the book “KISS guide to sailing”. The book is very informative. Also decided that the potter 19 is the right boat for me. Need to wait a little before buying though.

I’ve started canoeing, and there’s a sailing club next door. I might pop in there next weekend.

every day on my break i go to marine park to watch the sailboats, which i consider to be one of the most peaceful things ever.

i would love to go sailing on one.

then there are the yachts. oy.

first i’ll try sailing, then if i love it as much as i think i will, the goal will transform into owning one. maybe i’ll buy a yacht when i retire and just live there. :)

Well, it was fun. But it wasn’t exactly what I had in mind for this goal. So I’m going to keep it on the list. Oh well; there is always another day.
