I'd have probably enjoyed that once upon a time. Like when I was 40 years younger.

That's neat how some boats will always end up on the correct side in the water. I did not know that.

Goodness Naut the only small boat I have been in was a bit scary until I found I could touch the seabed with the oar.

Still interesting of course. Have you ever heard of a sail boat with a floating keel Naut. I had a Brit friend that used to sail one on Riviere ded Praries and the Keel moved up and down. I never did learn what the purpose of that was because I was too busy hanging and maybe you have another name for it.

Son (Peter's dad) did that once when he was out on a sailboat alone, but he righted it without too much effort.

I feel pretty much at home on a boat, or did last time I was on one.
But I'd still wear a life jacket. :)

To be perfectly honest, I love the ocean, but am actually fearful of boats. Had a bad incident once . . . once . . . and that was enough!

I'm glad they could chuckle at but I think I might have been terrified even though you said it would not capsize, it still looked scary! sam
