[quote=PDS624]When I was a kid, my father and his new wife wanted to spend some quality time with me so we all headed out for the mug cup on a Hunter25 (AKA big slow mono...) After a long down wind run, Dad wanted to go forward and get ready to drop the spinaker so he let the wife take the helm and told her "if you have any problems, just turn into the wind" about the time he got to the bow, my step mother asked " which way is that...
Next thing I know, I am hanging from the outboard and catching all the stuff that floated out of the cabin. gotta love an auto righting keel
It was bad enough that he gave up cats for slugs but from then on dad became a stink boat sailor
just one more thing we never saw eye to eye on :-( [/quote]
