By the way, Donal
Force 9 conditions is more properly called a gale or strong gale. Most
"sailors" consider anything about force 6 to be somewhat challenging. This past
sunday we sailed in Force 7 and maybe Force 8 for a bit.
More than you could handle. But I suppose you call anything above force 5 heavy
air right up to force 12!!
But I'm sure you can quickly conjure up a story of how you were in this storm
or that! And some folks here will believe you!
Bwahahahha!
