While sitting with Jack and
Carol, I (l) got to hear
how the AYS very successfully promoted sailing among the kids, and how
much Jack enjoyed teaching them. Meanwhile, Carol informed me in
no uncertain terms that if their son, Jeff, were able to race, he would
win the Nationals. The more I think of it, the more I'd love to meet
the challenge of racing against Jeff. Another visit with the lovable
Awosting Rebel fleet would also be great fun for me! Maybe I can come
down to do a seminar of some kind (e.g. racing rules?) and work in a
race or regatta in a borrowed Rebel???
