Scout,
No matter what you read here or on any other ng, ListServ, or whatever,
sailing is the best way to learn how to sail. The
discussions here of a technical nature can be interesting and sometimes
fun, but the reality is that some of the posters here
are...how shall I put this politely?....erudite techno-heads?...you
know...college professor types with advanced degrees. They
do know how to sail...very well...but they just can't seem to get away
from dissecting everything to death...(to wit: the
Bernoulli vs Newtonian force stuff...who cares as long s it goes like it's
supposed to?) The saving grace is that they haven't
sunk so low into their academia that they still can't rise up and act
human at times.

And Scout, all those kids you think you're getting rid of within the next
few years? Ain't gonna happen...they'll take turns
over the years coming back, just to see if you've kept your parental
skills honed.

Go out there and buy a bigger boat (with a survey, please) and get
sailing!
