OK - lets be really honest. Photos of sailing camp are, to the untrained and perhaps normal eye, not very exciting. And so I could have easily sufficed with say this photo:
Both boys, nice breeze, the Swiss shore in the background. But no. I had to have a couple of close-ups of both boys at the helm.
Smiles no extra charge.
And well - while Im posting - why not a quickie series on capsizing practice? For those of you thinking of heading out on a Laser this summer, Lyells technique is quite good, and so you can definitely consider these educational.
Of course its not enough to educate one brother - the other has to be able to right his boat should the need present itself. Apparently the need presented itself.
From there - why not move to the big time? Turtling.
Hmm - well dad - I got it upside down - now what do I do?!
And now that capsizing isnt so scary, its a lot more fun to see what the boat can actually do. And see how it tips.
Whoee - look - Im still dry. Well sort of.
This one I think can only be captioned "I Love My Boat".
Dont go to sleep up there big fella - she'll be turtled in a minute.
