You give a great description!

I've done a fair amount of sailing myself (cough)--it happened with a group of tourists this Christmas in St. Maartens sailing the "True North" in the Regatta. This was the same boat that entered the 1987? race against the Aussies and the "Stars and Stripes" boat. Our team of 2003 just happened to win! So as I said, I pack a great deal of sailing experience under my belt.

I have rarely been on a sail boat and know next to nothing about the game. The young men working the boat In St. Maartens had worked many races in competition, and from their descriptions I could imagine how incredibly grueling some of them must have been.

Do you still sail?
