(7,947 posts)I have never had one sink.
Then again, when a storm blows up, I don't take the boat out, especially when there are dozens of larger boats beating up big wakes.

(32,017 posts)It was fun, and it was some really-fast sailing, but my crewmate (a big guy) and I were leaning heavily to windward just to keep the boat upright. We didnt capsize, but we had to select an alternate port for mooring that evening.
I was about 18 at the time. In retrospect, that was pretty reckless.

But that's what youth is for-- pushing the boundaries of good sense! Super fun, I'm sure, if terrifying.

(32,017 posts)Thats really only one of two times that I can recall being frightened on the water. The other time, I and three others capsized in a speed boat in Sapelo Sound (Georgia coast). I was wearing a life jacket, and I was fine. The water was warm, and we were rescued in a couple of hours, but your point is well-taken. Survival definitely makes the story sweeter.

Biden is easily holding his own against the POS in the WH, and I expected Biden to continue to do so, he's proven himself in the 8 years under Barak Obama.

(26,109 posts)that can keep getting stronger. Experienced something like it with just a few boats. Boats were gone and the waves kept getting stronger. Not fun if youre in a kayak.
