That’s where I’ll be tomorrow!
What you’re seeing is a sailboat that is a 19′ Lightning.
7′ in width, it was designed for racing.
There are Lightning clubs all over the world.
There are about 70 Lightnings at our club located on Cass Lake just north of the city of Detroit.
With a crew of three, everyone has a job to do.
And that job must be done in the right way at the right time.
I have been in almost 100 Lightning races and only won one race.
In that winning race, I decided to go in a different direction than the rest of my competitors.
We caught a puff of wind that made all the difference.
Tradition at the club is to throw the guy who wins his first race in the lake.
I barely had time to get my shoes off before in I went!
Think of sailing as your next sport.
If not today, when?
