Sailing

Rigging a 'Mirror'

Recently, Peter had the pleasure of joining a family style sailing camp at Camp Coolamatong, near Bairnsdale, Vic. About half the time sailing was deemed to be safe enough to go out with the sailing skills most people had. In the morning the air would be very still, but a good sailor could still find a way to sail in that, and good skills to learn. Later in the morning the wind would spring up to around 10 Knots and the boats would start skimming along. Peter experienced a capsize which was good for his training and good for prompting him to wear more appropriate sailing clothing next time.
